Summer Time is Made for Skirts...

Summer feels likes its really here. School is out and skirts are in. Here are some photos from our last two sessions at Abeille, making skirts. Skills we worked on included putting in a zipper, darting, waistbands, hemming, slits, and facings. They came out amazing...just in time for the summer heat!
Nikki's lovely bird skirt (Joel Dewberry fabric from JP Knit and Stitch) contrasts amazingly with a floral print waistband.

Angela's gorgeous black and white skirt made from the Sew Everything Workshop book by Diana Rupp.



Jayne's wonderfully executed darts look great with this pale gray and blue floral fabric.


Kate's bold black and white skirt with perfectly stitched waistband with facing.



Abbie's floral skirt (fabric from Gray's Fabric in the South End) from a layered Amy Butler pattern. Love this fabric combination!
