New Look 6106, Again!

Hello again!  It was so fun to see what everyone wore for the Fourth of July as I cruised the blogosphere this week.  As you know, I made a skirt from New Look 6106 last week and decided I needed one more before putting the pattern pieces away.  I used another quilting cotton from my stash that I purchased here at one of the quilt shops a year or two ago.  It's so funny, when I checked the selvage on this quilting cotton, I found it was another Alexander Henry fabric called "Canyon Path".  I must be drawn to their designs, because I had no idea that this fabric and the one used in the previous post came from the same designer when I purchased them.  Now I will keep my eye on the new designs that come out from this company.

I don't have anything new to share about construction on this version.  I made view C again, but this time took 5 inches off the hemline, due to fabric constraints.  Since the fabric is so busy it is hard to see any details like the front pockets, invisible zipper, or darts in the back.  This is just another comfortable easy-to-wear skirt.  I have styled it with a rtw tank top that I've had in my wardrobe for awhile now.  I haven't come across any buttons in my stash that would work for embellishing the pockets.  I may browse around this weekend and see if I come up with some I like, or I may leave it as is.

A few close-ups of the back, side, and front.  This skirt will be fun to wear with my magenta or white cardigan too.

I am pretty excited about a couple of new fabrics that just arrived in the mail today.  You'll be seeing them soon.  Have a great weekend everyone and thanks for stopping by.  Aloha!
