My first finished project this month is this favorite bib-front shirt (01-2008-108), this time in hanky weight linen from Fabric.com.
I loved playing with the wing needle!
This is also as close as it gets for my only white shirt.

My second garment for this month is this fun and flirty skirt from my favorite knit skirt pattern, kwik sew 3032
Seriously, I've lost count of how many skirts I've made from this pattern. It sure has served me well. And it's so quick to make too. Since the fabric has white background, I decided to line it with silk weight powerdry which I bought from a coop years ago. If you can get your hands on it, go for it. It's good stuff! Feels like butter against the skin.
Needless to say I am feeling pretty proud of myself this month :) Up next, the trench! wish me luck.

I am impressed!
I really need to take the one garment a month pledge. I sew for everyone BUT myself it seems.
two really nice garments! I really need to focus on the quilt after sewing 2 pieces for me but since I don't feel like it I'm mainly knitting!
You have two fabulous garments that look great on you. Congratulations on a productive month!
I love both pieces. The skirt fabric is a beautiful print and I love the wing needle detail and the buttons on the shirt.
The skirt is gorgeous and the top looks like an heirloom piece. I believe you take longer to finish your projects because you want to make every piece look its best.
Good for you for catching up! Gorgeous detailing on your shirt, and I read that paisleys originate from India, they are stylized mangos. True?
Hi Deepika! I am a fellow Indian who lives in France and a fellow sewing lover too. I am a beginner but would love to explore more and improve my skills. The garments are lovely,specially the skirt. Happy sewing n check out my blog.
