Skirt from ponte fabric

The other garment I made from the border print fabric is this skirt.

Can you imagine this being part of the same fabric as the top I showed yesterday?

  

So much was happening in this print. For someone who in general wears a lot of solids it was too much. Using the fabric this way I managed to get two garments I like. The fabric quality is great, originally it was an expensive fabric. I had a remant at only 12 euro's. A bit extra for the lining of the skirt, I'm pleased with my bargain.

(I made my own pattern using Suzy Furrer's book).

  1. These look like two totally different fabrics. I love both pieces and you were smart to make separate pieces to wear with solids I assume.

  2. I love the print! For kicks, can you put them top and skirt together on the dress form so we can see what it would look like? I'm just curious.
