Last week I did finish my second Summer Essentials item - A summer skirt. I used Simplicity 2226 a Learn To Sew pattern. Which was a great and easy pattern to sew.

I used a curtain that my friend gave me :) i keep looking at everyone's curtains, thinking what i could make out of them.
I'm really happy with the finish and fit of this skirt, the only trouble is it looks awful on me, I think the length is wrong, I have already cut it out in Navy and will make it a bit longer. I hope it turns out ok, i love this style.
Hope you have a lovely afternoon, see you tomorrow xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I hear you on the motivation. I'm feel quite blah lately. Your skirt is cute. Look forward to your posts!
I made a skirt yesterday...today I feel totally unmotivated, such a shame is it is a gorgeous day.
Nice to have you back, Alex. That skirt is beautiufl, I love the fabric. x
Gorgeous skirt! I love the print. I haven't sewn anything in a while either. I have been on a knitting spree lately.
That's such a cute skirt!
SO CUTE! Have you tried adding a little extra to the inside hem at the bottom, maybe a strip of lace or something to look like a petticoat? it seems a shame not to make it work somehow when it is such pretty fabric, and a lovely little skirt...
Totally pretty skirt (I know what you mean about eyeing up curtains too!)
It looks really cute to me! Perfect for summer!
