the WTF skirt
That was the only phrase that I could describe this skirt. When I got the skirt, I did not fully look at the skirt to see the craziness in the design. When I got home my jaw dropped. OMG what did I get myself into?? Seriously!!!!
The skirt had hook and eyes all down the center of the skirt and they were NOT for decoration- they were functional! EEK!!! Then it had an asymmetrical front and back hem! I sewed out the hook and eyes. I will never run out of hook and eyes for the rest of my life because of this skirt. I fixed the waistband and then evened out the hem. Done! Now the skirt is wearable and I won't get any odd looks!

Ooooch, you levelled out the madness of the skirt. O.k., very good job - YET: perhaps you talk to me first next time you find a 'mady' which might be perfect match to another 'mady': ME ;-) !
O.k., jokes aside: well equipped already with 'matching madies', lets stick to the praise: very good job (of buying hooks and eyes cheap as well = fine, I'll do a smack behind my ears myself in your name = for being cheeky :-D )
AND tell me about it: the occasional guesses of how things might have been meant to be worn before amendments are getting started to ease this problem. Means: sometimes one can find strange things!

That was a terrifying before. Why oh why? The hem was unpleasant but the hooks and eyes? The mind fairly boggles...
I love it! The "before" looks strikingly similar to a skirt that was my favorite in my early twenties! Mine didn't have that weird hem.
I love your skirts colors and stripes!
