Following on from yesterday's micro rant, I've finally gotten around to making a pair of curtains from my old house into a winter skirt.
It only took me two years to do it. I always loved these as curtains but they don't fit any of the windows here, or suit the character of the house really. I've lined the skirt, and even trimmed the lining with a secret bit of broderie anglaise I found in my sewing box, so it'll be perfect as the weather is getting colder - ie. today.
The outer is old curtains, the inner is a bedsheet I bought from the charity shop for Will's costume last week, I had everything else, so it cost me next to nothing to make. And true to my word, I am wearing bog-standard black tights under all this.
