New Skirt in the Zucchini Patch



I'm very pleased to note that the deer have not yet destroyed my vegetable garden! We have baby zucchini we will be picking later this week, as well as a spray of darling cherry tomatoes.

Also pleased to have finished this skirt, made from an irresistable length of crazy print with a delicious cottony-tencelly drape. I haven't sewn myself anything from a modern pattern in so long, but Simplicity 5259 was just what I wanted--a fitted straight skirt with a kick pleat in back.
