Swishy skirt....dance
So I've been making dress from a retro 1950's pattern. I love the swishy circle skirt part. Was thinking it would make a great skirt for dancing in.
Question is plain colour or pretty print?
This is an ideal style for dancing in and your question about colour, well, it's up to you to find a colour you like and one which will go with a suitable blouse etc. Try to plan the whole outfit so you get a good combination of colours.
Cool. I went to the market the other day and they had some lovely fabrics. There's something about winter that makes me want to start sewing. The website I'm using to help with the sewing also has a 'how to' make a crinoline/petticoat instructions. http://www.edelweisspatterns.com/blog/?p=850
