I can tell I'm done with school because I'm sewing all the time! Got the fabric yesterday, and worked all night and this morning to finish this commission. The skirt has a contrasting waistband with a paste-jewel button in the back, hidden zip, form-fitting upper lining, and two layers of ruched tulle underskirts (which are held in place by tiny bows and more paste-jewel buttons). I'm really pleased with the way it came out. There's one more photo at my flickr: http://flickr.com/photos/ohbara/147694432/ , but this one (in the outdoor light) shows the color best.
