A skirt for Lara

For Valentine's Day, Jason asked me to help him make a skirt for his wife, Lara.  I've been getting a bit more confident with sewing so I said that I would help him out.  In the end, I made the skirt on a Sunday afternoon since Jason was pretty much exhausted from starting a new job.  He and I tried to figure out how long to make it based on some of my skirts.  Also, we estimated the waist measurement.


I love how it turned out!  Jason also put me in charge of finding the fabric.  I made a skirt for myself a few months ago with yellows and greys and I feel so trendy in it.  I was hoping that this skirt would have the same effect for Lara.  I also did a lining for it so that she wouldn't have to wear a slip with it.  I think that was the coolest part about this skirt.
