I've cut out the 8 panels for a summer skirt, it is lovely and soft and floaty, it might need lining as it is quite sheer but I'm not thinking polyester, that will be too sticky in the hot weather. I'll probably use a silk charmeuse or similar to balance the weight of fabric. I was going to cut out the navy blue linen using the same pattern but as it is quite heavy linen I changed my mind - I will start another thread about that. I also cut out a waistcoat with the last remaining metre of the blue and beige floral I made the summer suit out of, I had just enough left over bright blue lining for it. My sitting room looked like the set of GBSB for a couple of hours with stuff everywhere.
