A Janie Curved Skirt

A little while ago I was a lucky winner of a Hadley Grace pattern of my choice. How great is winning something? Especially when it is something gorgeous!

The Janie Curved Skirt was the pattern that caught my eye, and much to Anna's delight I finished it a couple of days ago. She has already worn it twice!


Such a great design! My love for fabric from the Amy Butler 'Lotus' range is well documented (this dress and this bag), and I thought this fabric combination would work perfectly again for this project. The main fabric is Morning Glory in Linen, and the ruffle is Full Moon Polka Dot in Cherry.


The pattern was easy to follow and had a very clear tutorial with pictures. So a big thanks for the freebie Hadley Grace Designs! They are also here on Facebook.
