it was my birthday at the end of june, and i decided to make myself a skirt. it’s been a while since i got to sew for myself. i used a marimeko-esque sheet from the goodwill, and gertie’s gathered shirt tutorial. i love it!
(please forgive this ridiculous picture. it was really hard to take a photo of myself, running back and forth between the camera and the wall! plus, i am a terrible model! i get all awkward in front of a camera. this was one of two without a grimace on my face, or with my arms doing weird things. it might be off-center, but it’ll do.)

I love this skirt. Such a bold and summery print & I can’t help but dig that we share the same body type therefore I can picture myself in this style and know it will look nice. Selfies are a tough one, but it shows the skirt well! Great work lady.
