I didn't realize the skirt had pockets until I was cutting out the pattern! I'm definitely going to make it-possibly with self-fabric loops and covered buttons. I find I'm really leaning toward skirts and dresses for summer, I just don't like shorts as much.<br /><br />BTW-I simply have to thank you, again, for just being here. I've finally got my sewing mojo back, and I've worn something I've made for myself for two days in a row now!Schmoomomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04251824918338376827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20705637.post-26119332207116401212011-05-27T12:19:14.659-04:002011-05-27T12:19:14.659-04:00Lovely skirt! :)
