MickeyFan said... Very summery and fun looking skirt. Thanks for the review - I haven't even seen the article yet, but I am already looking forward to the new issue. 7/4/05 4:29 PM
granolamom said... I love your skirt! I saw the Threads article too, and I'm tempted to try it so I really appreciate the review. Just to clarify (if you don't mind), did you pleat a large piece of fabric rather than piece strips of fabric together first? 7/4/05 4:32 PM
CSchiffgens said... Yes, Granolamom, I pleated one big piece of fabric, or actually it was 3 44 inch strips. 7/4/05 4:40 PM
Susan R said... Your skirt is terrific! I just received my magazine a couple of days ago and was intrigued by the article. It's great to see what you did with the concept. 7/4/05 5:26 PM
Tiner W said... Neat! I plan to make this with my niece before the summer ends. Yours is so cute! 7/4/05 5:50 PM
bunz said... Yours looks much better than the Threads version. Their yoke is all lumpy. Great save! 7/4/05 6:11 PM
Twinkster said... Nicely done and it looks great on you! 7/5/05 0:23 AM
Kathryn said... I am printing out your review, Cindy, and placing it in my Threads magazine, so it is right there when/if I decide to copy that skirt. I love the colors in your skirt. I'm wondering if you needed less fabric because you did not cut and sew individual strips together; all of those small seam allowances must take up lots of fabric. Thank you for giving us a "real world" view of that great Threads skirt. You did a wonderful job! 7/5/05 7:02 AM
