Wool

Been working on a wool skirt for youngest, using a skirt she likes and fits into perfectly as my pattern. LOVE working with this gorgeous fabric that she picked out, probably a year ago. SO scary sometimes to make that initial CUT! I used iron in tricote in the waistline and also the front facing, which is just a turn under, so much flatter at the seam. Spent quite a while last night hand sewing in the lining, SO worth it. Not done yet, and have NO idea of button and button holes, but have decided I will get out my couture book and do the buttonholes by hand. Never done it, LOVE the look, and while I am doing such a tedious task . . . . I'll be praying.
