look at them pockets! (they have a mini pleat in the middle which is why the pattern looks off)
they are as big as shorts!
only because i couldn't find my instruction manual
and i only sewed a front to a back 3 times!
i couldn't find my seam ripper
so i had to use a teeny tiny crochet hook.
i also discovered that part of my seams were sewn using very long stitches. whoops.
i also had a mini panic attack when i started sewing the actual panels together
this skirt is HUGE
i made sure to measure my waist before deciding which size to cut out
and when i slipped it on there was like 6 extra inches in the waist
after texting my granny she reassured me that once i get the elastic waistband in the skirt it will pull in - and also help create the fullness
here's what i have so far (minus the waistband and hemming)
and i tried to get a picture of the huge pockets
but i don't think you'll be able to tell their enormity until i finish and put it on
for reference - here's what i'm going for
(view A1 - the one the model is wearing)
hopefully i'll have this done by tonight - and i'm even thinking about picking up fabric to make a pair of the pants this weekend
woodford wanted to wish you a happy weekend
and with that, i will too!
until monday!
