I've been following your blog for a while and really love your style. You inspired me to make a circle skirt! (Yet to finish and blog it though! ). I love the silhouettes and colours you choose. Hopefully one day my me-made wardrobe resembles yours heh. :D you are great!
ReplyDeleteAwww, thanks so much Johanna! I can't wait to see your finished circle skirt - you'll wear it a tonne (they go with so much!).
DeleteYou've made me all shy now *blush* :)
me too, me too!%)) I only have question! Did you write somewhere about hemming of circle skirt? I tryied to surf your blog but without success!
DeleteI haven't, but I should!! Actually, watch this space, my third pattern is a take on a circle skirt and I'll write a detailed tutorial on hemming for it when it comes out :)
DeleteI will wait! I want to make my next skirt better!%)
