The steps I carried in making a beautiful pinnafore skirt with side slit for my junior sister. (Traditional marriage uniform)
Hello needlework.
Wednesday greetings to you all, how are you all doing today and how is work or business going, I hope things are going very well around you, today I will be sharing with you all on the steps I carried in making this beautiful pinnafore skirt for my junior sister.
Our neighbor had a traditional marriage last Saturday so they brought out some fabric for the uniform, it was about three types of fabric so people choose the one they like, so my junior sister choose this fabric which was the one that others like most and I like it too, so my sister and her colleagues at work contribute money and bought six yards so all them decided to sew only skirt and wear with a turtleneck top then my sister decided to sew a pinnafore and use with a long sleeves turtleneck, well she gave it to one seamstress and the lady did not told her that she had a lot of work at hand, because the marriage date was very close, so she disappoint my sister then I decided to help her even though I didn't feel so strong and it was an urgent work for me since she was so frustrated and look so worried, so on Friday she went they and the lady didn't see her cloth then she brought it to me which the marriage was on Saturday and I started working on the cloth by noon time, well it was just a simple style, she wanted a straight cut skirt with pinnafore well I look over the style and I told her I will give out a side slit at the front so it will look nice for her, so I brought out the fabric and started working.
The procedure
Due to the urgent mood that i was in, and the marriage venue was so close to us then some of the people that came from a long distance had some issues on their marriage uniform so they dirrected them to me on that Friday, some of them did a very serious adjustment, so i didn't have chance to snapped some cutting steps and i was using my friend's sewing machine, so i folded the fabric by two i two the skirt full length, the waist, the hips, so i divided by two and draft them down then i cut it out, so after cutting the front i folded the remaining fabric again by two and placed the front on it and cut it out, after finishing with the cutting i went and cut the lining and turn them, i hold the front and back dart, so for the front i slit then i turned it very well with linning, then i cut out the fabric pieces width by 4.5 and the size length of her waist and i sew it down on the skirt.
After putting the waistband i put in the black zip properly.
I attached a rose at the front slit.
I then cut out the pinna front and and gave out a "V" neck at the front pinna and cut out the back pinna and i turned them with a facing pieces of the fabric, then i sew them down on the skirt properly.
I finally iron it very well and attached a buttin at the side of the pinna.
So here is the outcome of the fabric
It waa so nice for not disappointing her and she was so excited, the fabric was so beautiful and the style i gabe to her was amazing her colleagues like the style so much, i waa ao excited for that.

It is very pretty. Both the design and the print are very beautiful. Your daughter will be very happy with her skirt.
I loved it, my mom used to make them for me when I was a little girl, it brought back beautiful memories.
You did a great job with this design and the outcome looks good on your sister.
Sometimes that little smile on the face of your client or whoever you are making a dress for is heavenly. It shows how much your effort and craft is being appreciated. You did well for not disappointing her because she wouldn't have feel among during the event.
