I made the skirt of this outfit. It took me forever to make this skirt due to unrealistic expectations and finding time to sew. Originally, this was supposed to be a 2-piece outfit. It was going to have a matching crop top and a skirt. I started working on the top, and I quickly realized I do not have the skill/experience to finish this. I was never really taught to sew. I’m learning to sew from YouTube videos and Tumblr. I was disappointed that I could not finish my vision for this fabric. I stopped sewing the top, and I adjusted my vision for this project to my experience level. I’m really happy and proud of myself with the outcome of this skirt.There are so many beginner mistakes that I made like taking into account how long this project will take, having correct measurements, sewing correctly, having the inside/outside of the fabric match, being patient, the type of fabric I need, and how to sew accordingly to the type of fabric. So many mistakes.My problem was that I thought I could just sit at a sewing machine and whip something beautiful in 2.2 seconds. I learned that sewing is going to take time and I can’t have high expectations for myself especially since I don’t have the skills yet. However, I really enjoyed sewing. I’m currently looking for another inspiration. I might go back and correct my mistakes or I’ll leave this skirt as it is, as memory of my first sewing project.Thissisrayy -- source link
