    Beautiful skirts ~ I especially liked the red with the cross stitch look ~ and also the blue one. Both are very flattering on you. ♥️💙

    The blue skirt is gorgeous! Really they all are. But I absolutely love that one. You have to wear it.

    Alisa, your skirts are lovely. You look so good in the Vogue and the Simplicity projects, especially the last one is very chic.

      Thank you Joanne! 😘🥰 I think sewing is muscle memory, the more you do it, the more automated it becomes, and frees your mind to think and consider other things, like seam finishes! 🤩🤩

    Beautiful skirts and I like the Hong Kong finish that you do with seams. I loved all the skirts but the last blue one was my favorite!

    • @Sloths.and.Orchids
      @Sloths.and.Orchids  3 года назад

      Thank you Cheryl! 😘😍 That Hong Kong finish does take a little longer than just overlocking the seams but it's very satisfying to look at for the rest of the time I wear the garments 💕💜

    Hi Alisa, Skirts, I love making them too but I usually only wear them in the summer. I should get over that 🤔. I really like the last blue skirt and the first skirt. I think the first skirt gives a very flattering silhouette. Have a great week. I hope you get time to sew.

    • @Sloths.and.Orchids
      @Sloths.and.Orchids  3 года назад

      Thank you Leann! 😍I think I would be reaching for a warmer skirt more often than a summer skirt.. Don't know why... We are not living in a skirt wearing culture at the moment 😘🥰🤩

    Omg I absolutely love all your skirts!!! Would love to have each one in my wardrobe 😍 Made me wonder why I don’t make and wear skirts more often 🙄 I used to wear rtw skirts all the time, but somehow haven’t made any that I wear.. As for your scuba fabric, why not make a little bustier top to pair it with the skirt in the summer? That would be gorgeous! 😘

    • @Sloths.and.Orchids
      @Sloths.and.Orchids  3 года назад

      Thank you babe! 😍🤩 I have to admit, I don't wear them often enough.. they are so quick and easy to make too! 💜
      That's an interesting idea about a bustier, I'll give it some thought! 💕💜🤩

    Alisa, you should wear skirts more often! You look great in them! My favouritea on you were the first scuba and the last blue one. They also had the best lengths on you. Xxx

    • @thesewingedit
      @thesewingedit 3 года назад +1

      @@Sloths.and.Orchids I find it very hard to say which is the perfect length for skirts because it really depends on the shape of the skirt, the fabric and also what outerwear you complete the outfit with. I was often surprised how pretty skirts with just below the knee length are but it really depends. But keep trying the lengths and understanding what works for you. ❤️

    My daughter LOVES scuba skirts for fall and winter! I love their easy construction, but pretty scuba is hard to find here - I usually have to order it from another country so it makes it a pricy make with shipping and customs. Your skirts are lovely, and we will hold you accountable for that blue skirt!
