Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Tired of boring work-appropriate skirts (black! grey! black! blah!), I decided to make one myself, something bright and cheery. Here is the result: an aqua a-line skirt done up in light and comfortable wool, fully-lined and donning tulip-style pockets.
See more info on my blog: The Fabled Needle (Blog). Thanks for shopping by!
