Ready to wear

The red skirt has a wine colored cotton
knit panty, fuschia colored under
skirt and red sparkle netting on top.

Made three skirts this week.  The animal print skirt is all Lycra.  It's for Chris.  The other two are for the sister of the girl for whom I made the pink skirt.  She asked for a blue one.  I only had enough Lycra to make the pants but I happened to have yards of this blouse fabric.  Had to singe the edges to keep the raveling under control.  The red one is a bonus for her.  Started out making that one for Chris but it turned out a bit smaller than I think Chris would find comfortable, so I'm giving it to pink skirt's sister.  The blue one has a two layers, the under layer is a matching coordinate.  I bought this fabric about 12 years ago.
