Another beautiful creation and the colour is perfect. I enjoy watching you sew and quite jealous I couldn't do so while sitting on the floor. Thanks for inviting us into your sewing room. ;-)

Thank you! I must admit that I don’t really have space for a big cutting table, so floor it is the best option, as the dinner table is reserved usually for eating.

I have this ensemble marked a one of my favorites on instagram, how wonderful to see it put together. The pattern matching at the front of the skirt is just *chef's kiss*
