I dont like skirts

So I was saying how I had no bottom halves of outfits, well I made some put it on and fitted then attached the elastic waistband, thought id try it for size today and nope, not getting up my legs........ ive even been going to the gym!

So that's two skirts that possibly wont be worn, ill see what I can salvage from this.... might find a very slim model with no bum.....

Anyhoo it became clear that I had to make new ones. So instead of using a skirt of mine for size I used the bottom of the silver dress pattern which I already tried on and know fits!!

So I chopped off the bottom half of a rather shiny stretchy top to make a nice skirt, lets hope this one fits real people!

   

This was the top, I quite like the fabric so have decided to keep the top half as a crop top. 

         

Taking in the top was a quick over locker job so I went back to skirts, using my dress pattern I used a pillowcase and some contrasting gold fabric, im still deciding to have the back as the back or the other way around with a big chunky zip....

       

Then I really did get bored of skirts so I took apart a skirt and made this crop top/ bralette.
it is quite fitted as I am not using elasticated straps or elastic under the bust just a simple zip at the back, because I have used cotton is it best to not add elastic as it may stretch the bra cups out of shape and not give support.

                    

I think i may end up having more than 8 outfits if i can work out the correct size of a skirt! Wish me luck
