Oliver + s music class skirt
This little skirt was made for Stella before I went away to Sewjourn. Rachel gave me the lovely fabric the last time we were there – so I don’t think that it has languished in the stash for too long!
I made size 4 for Stella, but didn’t have quite enough fabric for the waistband – so I used different fabric! Let’s just call it a design feature. This pattern is wonderful – beautifully drafted; everything fits together exactly as it ought to and the way that the pockets are done above the side pleats is just superb.
The instructions were wonderful and this skirt has lots of beautiful details. Classic but with a modern twist – I really do love Oliver + s patterns! However, Stella has decided that she doesn’t want to wear it. Hmmmmm.
Take the band off and replace it with a red to match the dolls. Stella probably heard you say something about not matching. She has developed a fashion sense from you and is starting to know when things suit her. Lovely skirt by the way.
Love the skirt, disappointed we didn’t get the photo shoot including the model!
oooh, her first rejection? I’ve had that pattern for a while but a certain madam has said she won’t wear it. she’s slowly coming around….
I love the pockets and pleats – perhaps she’ll soften over time?
It’s a beauty! The details are fabulous. Here’s hoping your Small comes around before she grows out of it…
It’s a gorgeous skirt. I love Oliver + S patterns. Sorry Stella rejected it.
I love the pocket and pleats. Too bad she won’t wear it, maybe she was just in a mood?
This is one of only a few of their patterns I don’t have – and now I want it!!
This skirt is gorgeous Lara – I love the fabric and those little pleats are very sweet.
I hope Stella soon decides it’s the best thing and won’t take it off!
So so good… deign + fabric. Big love from here.
