Circle mini skating skirt....

...turned out amazing.  I hope it fits well and is comfortable and moves well.  I used a specialized lingerie wide elastic for the waistband and used an elastic bias tape on the cut edge....it stays where you put it and has a glorious full rippling spin!!

Revolution

Nearing completion on Revolution.  I have been experimenting with so many new products and fabrics and techniques so that these will be sturdy and beautiful at the same time.  I made a new skirt after this photo was taken.  It is a full circle mini skirt with red edging and a black elastic waist with blue stretch bias tape...new find!  It is great!

Nearing completion
