I'm on a Roll... another skirt

[coke_O_nut]

So, I've been bored to death during winter break, and I decided to busy myself with more patterns. I made this same exact skirt for my mom, but she didn't want to model hers tonight. I forget the pattern that I used, but I am almost positive it was Simplicity.

The front, with my fun cowgirl boots.


Side...


And back.


For this skirt, I used a tweed. It's a fun fabric, but a pain to work with. My mom used the same pattern view, and used a similar fabric, so we'll match when we wear them. Hopefully I'll get her to model it within the next few days.

Lovely! The shape, fabric, and execution look fab.

This is a great skirt!!!
Do you mind me asking what size you made it in?  It's hard to find realisitic pics instead of the drawings on the pattern pages.
I sew mine in size 20, pattern size.
Just curious!

I made mine in a size 14.

Thats a niiice skirt! I love the fabric you used. And I love your boots too. Where'd you get 'em? They look vintage.

I got my boots at The Naturalizer. I don't know if it's a big chain, but that's the place.

SO CUTE! I have a tweed skirt from Old Navy that looks just like yours, but mine is brown- great job!

I, too, love your skirt.  Great plum color with the hot pink--very "in" this season!  I love the cut and style of the bottom of the skirt.
