I may be a little bit behind everyone else, but I have been busy browsing Bing images to figure out what sort of details I would like to add to my circle skirt for Casey’s Circle Skirt Sew~Along. Here are a few pictures that particularly caught my eye ~
~ * ♥ * ~ I am really smitten with the full skirt boarder~type print on the right; it’s so cute! ~ * ♥ * ~
~ * ♥ * ~ I love how the pink flowers flow on the left skirt and aren’t the stripes on the far right darling? ~ * ♥ * ~
~ * ♥ * ~ I really like the lace trim on the left and the gold roses are stunning. Plus, the black fabric of both skirts looks ever so good. ~ * ♥ * ~
~ * ♥ * ~ Floral fabric ~ yes please! I am really liking the square necked blouse on the right as well ~ super cute! ~ * ♥ * ~
I have already decided that I would like two patch pockets on the front of the skirt, and then I got to thinking that maybe little bit of embroidery on each pocket would be just the thing to finish it off! I have been really inspired by Katie from The Little Red Squirrel ~ she has embroidered some lovely pin ups on her skirt and it looks fab!
Here are my top embroidery patterns for this project ~
~ * ♥ * ~ I am favouring bows and flowers for my patterns, but that’s no surprise. I think the one on the right is winning so far. Simple, but elegant. I like it. ~ * ♥ * ~
~ * ♥ * ~ I couldn’t resist these sweet little birds and the fawn is lovely too. ~ * ♥ * ~
~ * ♥ * ~ Maybe one of these patterns? I am really not sure… ~ * ♥ * ~
I think that writing this post has helped me to finalize exactly which details I want to add to my circle skirt. It’s probably not that hard to guess where I am going, but none the less I shall leave the final decision a secret for the big reveal. : D Have a great weekend!
xox,
bonita
