it is good to know that quilting cotton isn't suitable for this pattern...looking forward to seeing the whole collection together and the photo added to each review! I like the movie..looking forward to more

I have also learnt the hard way that quilting cotton does not make the best garments. Though there are some that are printed on softer drapier base fabric. I do like the style of this skirt though. I;m glad that you had others that you liked!

I think the skirt is cute. If you really don't like it, you could wet it and twist it very tight. Put it inside a pantyhose leg and let it dry hanging inside the pantyhose leg (hanging over your shower rod for a couple of days). This will change the fabric to have a wrinkled (on purpose) texture. Nice review!

I think your skirt is cute. Too bad about the fabric. I like the pattern. Christas has a good idea, if it wrinkles, take advantage of that with the broomstick effect. I'll have to look for this pattern.

Love it! I'm definitely looking forward to the final video review. The skirt looks cute on you and the cat definitely approves. ;-)
