Hi-Waist Skirt

Burda 7741

This pattern came with an amazingly hideous skirt with an attached "bib", and then this skirt, which I adore. Chad took my model-pose photo. He says it's the greatest picture ever taken of me. Also take note of my almost-ripe tomatoes in front of me.

The skirt sounded easy on paper, but I ran into some problems, but it might be because I'm still not an expert on making pleats. Also, the facing didn't match up right, but whatever, that's on the inside. It's also a little shorter than I usually go, I would have added a little length if I could start over.

My next project was supposed to be a dress with some fabric I had my eye on, but it sold out before I got any, so now I don't know what I want to make.
