Homemade skirts

I’ve been making lots of clothes over the last few months but I find photographing them and therefore posting about them difficult. The mirrors in the flat are in horribly dark corners so I can’t do standing in front of the mirror and taking the photo yourself thing. But it always seems that if I wear my homemade clothes in the daytime, when the light is good, R is away and he only sees them (and is therefore available to play photographer) in the evening. Ah well. Here are a couple of pictures I have managed to gather.
First up, I made the Trellick Towers skirt by Cloth Kits. I like this skirt but It would be better for me if it were more A-line.

Last summer I made this summer skirts with a cute flower bud pattern. This picture was taken one evening in the pub and I think if you look carefully you can see where I was splashed with red wine.

I’m enjoying making my own clothes although R knows when I am working on a skirt or a dress because rather a lot of swearing comes out of my sewing room.
