Very nice! Looks terrific!
Oh yes, I have definitely ruined a few garments by making very dumb, obvious mistakes. It's quite embarrassing and discouraging. For what it's worth, your skirt looks absolutely perfect from the outside! 😀 The forties were the best. So classy.
I'm sure you can see the flaws because you know they're there but that skirt does look great from here^^.
