Getting there slowly, just the hem to do, all 12 feet of it. I'd better make sure I have a full bobbin in the machine.
I tried something out yesterday, I think I can get this skirt out of 2 metres of fabric although it will be 3" shorter. There was quite a bit leftover from the 3.5 metres the pattern requires. Sorry about the mixed measurement terms, I buy in metres but think and sew in imperial measurements.
I have got some bright turquoise and blue silky jersey which would be suitable. I had better finish this one first.
