For my first re-visit I started by using the first ever sewing pattern I made up! This is a super easy Vogue easy options pattern V8084, view C with the asymmetric hem.
In my attempt be more creative when doing pattern re-visits I settled on layering two fabrics. My first thought was to line the skirt but as I was using two fabrics I decided not to.
Construction:
The skirt went together with no problems. I even match up the waist band and side seams in one go.I chose to only hem the bottom layer of fabric and as the top layer doesn't fray so I left it un-hemmed.
Something had to go wrong somewhere and it turns out I didn't have the correct coloured zip! I didn't have much chose and had to white. I do plan to paint the zip pull with black nail-varnish to blend in ;)
Pattern: Vogue easy options V8084
Size: Uk 10
Fabric: outer fabric was black star dotted power mesh stretch net. underneath fabric was stretch satin in candyfloss pink.
Aprox time to complete: because I used a double layer of fabric it took me around 4.5hrs
Great skirt darling
