I love green. This skirt that you saw last spring, was one of my favorites. Until some of the zipper teeth melted, and I could no longer get it on. *sad face* We soon fixed that, however, by using this solid green pique, and making a new one. Hooray! I must confess that I'm not exactly a speedy seamstress...but this skirt took no time at all to whip up. That calls for a double hooray.
Oh, and it IS beginning to look (and feel) more like spring around here. Yesterday, I went outside in a short sleeved tee. Ahhh...no huge jacket to lug around.
I hope you're enjoying warmer weather, too, wherever you are!

I was curious what pattern you used for this skirt and which pattern your sister used for the Gina dress. I have some fabric screaming to be used. ;) Thanks ever so much!

Hi Jen!
For my green skirt the pattern I used was McCall’s 2029 (copyright 1999). This was an old pattern we already had, but you could probably find it on Etsy or Ebay. I made view B, and just lengthened it a bit.
As far as my sister’s Gina dress goes, here’s a link to a post where she gives all the info!!

I hope this helps, and you find a pattern for your fabric soon!!!
Have a lovely day, Jen!
