Made by Me - Blue skirt

I just can't get enough of pencil skirts right now. Or this shantung! Or vintage patterns!  I picked up a few DOZEN last weekend -- woohoo! Another hoarders junk is definitely my treasure. :)  This skirt pattern was a 1970's skirt, and the pattern called for a front slit with top-stitched detail up the front center. I prefer a clean front so I scrapped that and cut one solid piece for the front. I really like the pockets and the thin, lined waistband. I plan to make a top to match this.

Sweater from a no-name shop in Rome, Italy; sandals from ModCloth.
