Thank you for all your kind words about the first skirt design I posted on Monday – this is the second skirt design. I guess you could kind of call it a puff skirt? This also doesn’t have any embellishments either, because I didn’t have enough fabric and it’s the same story with the bold pattern – it really doesn’t need too much extra.
It was originally a terribly made hand made skirt that was basically a strip of fabric with an elastic band threaded through the waist (which was really really twisted!!). So I cut it all up and started out fresh.
At this point I’m wondering whether I’m actually going to get all the stock finished and ready for the shop opening at the end of May. You see, we have a huge two week event in May and another smaller one straight after which means my nights and weekends will soon be slightly busier than they have been of late. So, while I still aim to have the shop open at the end of May, I may need to push that date back, I don’t want to rush everything and forsake the quality of my items in the process. Making things to sell takes much more time than making something for me to wear, because I want it to be perfect!!
Any way, I have a small set of questions about my first two designs available if you want to help me out with any constructive criticism. Please just email me at prettylittlepictures@gmail.com and I’ll flick them to you! You can answer with as much or as little detail as you like!!

i LOVE the shape of this skirt. i found one that's a wee shorter at urban outfitters last year and i wear it often! the print you've chosen goes well with the shape!
Both skirts are fab, I really like the fabrics you chose.
The mary janes go so well wit the rest of the outfit! I really adore your hairstyle too!

Seriously adorable--I love it more than the other one! ;) hehe! Best of luck with getting all the work done for your shop opening; I know how it can get a bit stressful...
I really like your fabric choices! I like the skirts too, but I could never wear them :( Fullness and a thick waist, friends do not make.
Cute skirt Honey! Reminds of the See by Chloe collection! :)

I love this skirt! You're inspiring me to finally get off my butt and make some skirts that I've had the fabric for for over a month :)
The print on the skirt is the best - great fabric!
Loooove this skirt. The shape, the fabric, everything!
I adore it! I think the print is great and because the skirt is shorter the print isn't overwhelming. I hope you'll ship to U.S :D
Sending you an email!
Such a cute skirt! I'm going to answer your questions and send them back soon. :)
I just gave your blog another award, because I can't seem to stop doing that.. haha. http://chumblyface.blogspot.com/2009/04/hodge-podge-and-oddities.html
