It's a tad addictive..... and I'm still tweaking the pattern to make the perfect panel skirt.
Edited to add: It's a pattern that I drafted and am tweaking to fit perfectly (and be made quickly). I sorely lacked a good basic skirt pattern for those "oops I wore the wrong thing to work" moments last year, so I want to be prepared this year.
ooohh, you gotta guess that I'd like the black one, nice panel.
ReplyDeleteyou may indeed be a tad obsessed but lookin good! :)
The skirts are looking great!!
ReplyDeleteAh but obsession is the wellspring of genius!
ReplyDeleteThe floor may well be a bit dodgy ... but heck who was looking past those gorgeous skirts?
Gorgeous! I especially like the last one. Is it your own pattern, or are you tweaking someone else's?
ReplyDeleteI am with cathie. I love the panel one.
ReplyDeletegorgeous, great shape!
ReplyDeleteWell done - the last one is great:)
ReplyDeleteFabulous skirts! I especially love the last one which is funny as I have a black panel skirt with the same feature fabric (different colourway) by Maiocchi :)
ReplyDeleteOnce you nail a design, hard to not keep repeating the success. Looks lovely, great panel choices & fabulous model of course!! Love Posie
ReplyDeleteWow. If I looked that fab in an A-line I would wear one all the time. Love it!
ReplyDeleteYou GORGEOUS thing you!!! Skirts nice too, but I think you look good in anything!!
ReplyDeleteFantastic like the last one best too. what pattern did you use or did you make your own.
ReplyDeleteLove the skirts! And the sandals are awesome!
ReplyDeleteThese are really gorgeous! I am inspired, I so need one myself...
ReplyDeleteYou can never go wrong with an A-line! The fabrics are gorgeous too. :)
ReplyDeleteVery cool and stylish - love the panel skirt!
ReplyDeleteI love the black one too.
ReplyDeleteDon't suppose you could do a wrap around variation?I've been looking for an A-line wrap skirt pattern but they all seem to have too much flare.
I didn't even notice the floor Nikki - too busy oggling the great skirs.
ReplyDeleteWill the pattern be something you will sell so the rest of us can look this good too??
The skirt with the japanese ladies is amazing. Where did you buy the fabric?
ReplyDeleteI bought the fabric at GJ's... only I bought what was left on the bolt, sorry.
ReplyDeleteMelanie (above) tells me the design is by Maiocchi. I forgot to check before I cut off the selvage.
The skirts are looking great!!
ReplyDeleteWork from home India
Love the skirts. I could wear these at home in the evenings, especially if I did a bit more exercise to tone up this tummy of mine. The skirts are beautiful. Tell us more.
ReplyDeletewhat a great obsession to have. i always find I make multiples of things once I like a pattern. my fav is the kimono panel

Love all your A-line skirts, but the panels are my favorites. Wish I had a sewing machine at work. I would never do my actual work! Imagine sewing something quickly and changing you outfit to match the weather outside - that is, of course, the opposite of the weather forecast! Today is one of those days in Johannesburg. Weather forecast was 26 to 30 degrees celcius, but guess what? It is freezing and overcast outside! Me sitting her with open sandals and a short-sleeved top and no jersey or jacket to match!
ReplyDeleteSooooo - when is this Nikki pattern available for purchase?? Seriously? Went looking for patterns today, but those "store" patterns don't hold my hand like you do.
ReplyDeleteAnd I need my hand held, ya know?
*puppy dog eyes*
Love the design, love A-lines, but they can be so hard to find in non mumsy styles.
ReplyDeleteWhere can I find the pattern? Are you still sharing it?
