Sewing in the Heat

It's very hot and muggy here today (really much too hot to sew)..... But I started sewing this skirt last night and so I had to finish it off this morning.......It's the Simplicity 2414 sewing pattern in view D.  I posted about this skirt earlier in 'Summertime Skirt by Simplicity'. This time the whole construction went well except for two things....I lost a pattern piece number 4 so I re-used pattern piece 5 instead. That worked out okay as the extra length is needed for the person I'm sewing it for......

The second thing I did was I sewed the band with one side on the wrong side of the material ( not enough light where I sew, well that's my excuse anyway). As there was too much stitching to unpick, I just re-cut the pattern piece and started again.......Otherwise this was a perfect sewing experience and the skirt turned out really well! Oh, and the material is from my stash it's a embroidered cotton/ lawn blend.

The fit is a bit looser at the top than I would have liked and the
skirt is sitting a bit higher than It should.......
