mini bubble skirt

Morning.... how was your weekend? This weekend was amazing for a few of reasons: the sun was shining, the wet clothes can be dry quickly..lots of time was spent with loved ones...a beautiful and clean home... crafting and crafting still in progress...and here are some photos to highlight what I've done this weekend..my bubble skirt for my dear niece! Ngee....I can't wait to see Abigail wears this skirt..

 smile face...=) my first bubble skirt

 the reason why it becomes so bubbly...elastic band!

 ermmhh...reversible skirt? Okay gak tue...

 pleated and pleated...

 I'm not so sure the actual size of my niece's waist.so i sewed elastic band at the back of the skirt...

Happy weekend,everyone!

my brown skirt

tadaa....my brown skirt using M5566_McCalls.

the construction of my skirt

a lot of 'jahit sembat'...and i used my new bias tape maker to do that 'button hold'. erkkk...am i using the correct term? hehehe..

my buttons

full front view

ermmhh.....but I am not quite satisfied with the way i sewn the zip. very amatur...

oppss...sorry...model pucat...puasa maa....hehehe..and did u notice that sofa cover? ermmhh..my another unfinished business.

oklaa....my last pucat shoot...heheheh..

anyway...interested to sew one like this? if you are an amatur like me...all you've got to do is...buy the pattern from Alviana at her shop SHOPAHOLIC SEWIST and just follow the simple instruction. It's very easy! And you have a freedom to alter the design too. The pattern is very useful for doing the basic construction but the finishing is all up to you. Just like my skirt..you will notice that the waist part is totally different with the one in the picture of M5566 McCalls pattern.

and my upcoming project...CURTAINS! It's not for me but I'm helping my friend. 30 mtrs..waarrgggh!! must finish b4 hari raya.but luckily i don't have to do the scallop thingy...otherwise i pengsan lor...hehehe..anyway..can i make it?I'll try my best Rini!
