Another Self-drafted Skirt

I think this is from the same skirt block I developed with Karen Day, the super sewing pro I have taken a few classes with. It fits much more nicely than the silk dupioni version I made for Maria's wedding. This one is made out of a corduroy I bought at Joann's. I thought it was soooo cool at the time. I do love corduroy. But I am not so sure the color is that good on me. At any rate, it fits nicely and is super comfortable to wear. I guess the cotton corduroy has more give than the dupioni. I lined it with some lovely gray china silk I had in my stash, which probably adds to the comfort!!

Again, I am not so sure a skirt starting around my actual waistline is a good look on me. I feel a little like Ed Grimley. I must say.
