On Finally Posting My Peter Pan Skirt

After waiting for a warmer day and not liking the original photos taken of this outfit, and then having to wait for yet another warmer day and not liking those photos either because I waited until it was later in the evening, I decided to just share a mix of the photos.

That being said, I actually don't have much to say about this project. This is the same pattern I used back in 2016 to make my butterfly and lily pad skirt and the one which has an exceptionally blotchy and faded instruction sheet. This time, having made it before and having my already completed skirt for reference, it went much more smoothly. 

As usual, the print on the pockets had to match up with the print on the skirt. Since I had a limited amount of the printed fabric left, I opted to go with a lovely and perfectly matching "pink lavender" for the waist and pocket facings, as well as for backing on the ties. 

Eventually I'd like to make a matching blouse in mint green or using some white on white star fabric I have in my stash and I do have a waiting to be altered shirt I found at the swap meet for a $1 that will match perfectly, but for now I'm finding that I like pairing it with a black shirt.    

And least I forget, there's this tiny detail!
