Tonight, this fabric will become a fabulous maxi skirt. I have set up my dining room and living room to welcome some industrious ladies eager to make their first maxis! It is going to be such fun!
I happen to own three machines of varying vintages so I am putting them all into active service this evening. I have removed the 1/4" feet which I use for quilting and set them all up for sewing knits.
The living room is set up with 2 tables for cutting and the ironing board for pressing seams as we sew together our skirts.
My fabric is ready to be measured and cut. I am using it as an example so that each person can experience the laying out of their own. I want each of the women to leave here tonight believing that they can replicate the process on their own.
This is such an easy skirt to make, a great first project for people who are not "sewers" or who have not sewn in a while. It is a forgiving project and a whole lot of fun!
