Maternity Clothes? Who Needs ‘Em!

No seriously, who needs those? Oh wait……

So, in light of my ever decreasing wardrobe I decided that needed a new skirt. My initial idea was to put a jersey knit band on top of the waist of a skirt. I used my Sew What! Skirts book to make the fitted waist A-Line skirt. Failure to plan ahead…..

This is where my lack of patience and skill comes back to bite me and I just start hacking things up. I should have added an extra inch of ease to the waist and hips, instead I ended up cutting off the top because it was going to be too tight. Then when I added my jersey knit waist, it was a little too big. I’ve got about 4 and a half months to grow into it I suppose, and it is cute. Better too big than too small.
