D&G meets Fendi

Jess picked up this Dolce & Gabbana pure silk material when she was last down, purchased from Tessuti Melbourne.  I will be making a gathered skirt Butterick B5285, same as the Penny Farthing skirt - material 'Ticket to Ride'.

Fendi lining above, D&G material below - Love these colours

Last week, when I was in Tessuti, discovered this beautiful Fendi Lining - WOW - perfect for the lining of this skirt.  Bought without hesitation.

I just love lining a garment with interesting fabric - and the Fendi range is amazing.  I have some left over so will use this to line other garments.  Ted Baker does this beautifully in his garments.

Today's a rainy day - yippee!!  Can finish the skirt and then start on the next project - harem pants for Jess.
