Finished Sewn Objects

I finished a sewing project a couple of weeks ago. It's the A-line Barcelona Skirt by Amy Butler -- I love her patterns.

Here's a detail of the invisible zipper. The lining is cotton muslin and gives the skirt some weight.

I bought this dress from H&M for about $35. I never wore it (see price tag) and the 30 days return date had passed.
I felt like this dress made me look like a British prison matron.

I changed it into a skirt! I think I will get more use out of it. (Sorry it's so wrinkled - I had it just laying around waiting for the photo shoot.)
