barcelona skirts

I already know this skirt set will be an all-time favorite. Kind of like that dress my mom bought me when I was twelve that I still wear. Often. Well, world ... get used to seeing me in this skirt/apron get-up!

The apron overlay is completely reversible! Did I mention that I've fallen in love with this skirt?
The sewing was simple enough, if you know how to sew in a zipper. Even if you don't - no need to despair. Amy explains it all in layman's terms.

You can get the pattern over at Sew, Mama, Sew.

    Your version is just SO much more appealing than the one featured on the pattern itself. Hmm. Might have to reconsider making this one again.
    My one concern, though, is whether the apron sides flop around all funny when you sit down. I guess it doesn't matter so much though since the apron part is reversible. I suppose it just reveals the reverse fabric then?

    Hey Honey,

    So fun to see the finished product. Direct Jenny (Fabrics...) to your site - she will be delighted to see your interpretation.

    You know I love the RED!
