In keeping with my resolution to make more separates for myself this year, here is one of my recent projects.
The pattern is a 1945 reproduction from Eva Dress. The original pattern is for a fantastic dress, which I have made twice! It turns out, this dress makes a lovely little skirt (at least I think so).
Time to re-think all of those dress patterns – they really make excellent skirts! Just add a waistband and you are ready to go!
More pictures and information about the altered construction of my new skirt may be found over at Lilacs & Lace.

Your peplum skirt looks great–interesting idea! (I like the blouse too!)
Love it!!!!
Love it!!! Absolutely stunning.
Absolutely everything you make is truly beautiful. Not in a stalkerish way but I want to be you! Love seeing what you do next; again, always beautiful.
