42itousI just want to show off two more skirts, and then I'll move on to other subjects...
When I'm choosing fabric for a skirt, it has to be fabric that makes me say, "oooooh, I want that!" It can be hard to find two fabrics that both meet that requirement and look good together. Here are two examples where I bought the first fabric (the big blue peacock feathers in one skirt and the tiny magenta peacock feathers in the other) and then searched through many, many options before finding a match that I loved. (In case it isn't clear, this search is a task I love to do.) Choosing the color of grosgrain ribbon to cover the diagonal seam is a similar challenge on a smaller scale.
