I made a pencil skirt for a friend

Hello everyone in this great community,i hope all is well with you.
I feel better today and i am grateful for my recovery process, truthfully good health is everything.
Today i want to share with you the pencil skirt i made for a friend.

She was first a customer before she became a friend
She has been a unique friend of mine and shes obviously different from others.
Mostly,i am surrounded with chubby friends
But she's one of the slim friends i have , she's beautiful inside out.

She called that she will be coming to my place to picked her skirt.
Honestly i didn't even cut out the fabric let alone sewing it,so i told her the situation and i promised to finish it up in the evening time.
I am glad she was comfortable with it and i had to create time for her skirt

Here are the few materials i used
A black colour fabric,measuring tape,black thread,zip and a scissors

Around 12pm i was ready to work on her fabric,so i got the fabric,folded it and drafted some measurements on it.

Firstly,i marked out the length for the skirt,
I went on to mark out the waist measurement which was divided by four.
From her waist to her hips i took eight inches.
I also mark out her hips measurements which i had also divided by four.
Then her waist to her knee measurements.

I had tried to avoid distraction because i didn't want her to come for her skirt and i wasn't through with it.
So i tried to be fast in cutting and in sewing

I also cut out the back side of the skirt with zip allowance of one and a half inches.

For the band,she told me she wanted something different from the previous ones i have been sewing for her,so,i decided not to go with the big waist band
So i created something neat and smaller.

She came around in the evening and the first thing she noticed was the waist,she was so excited about it and she said she preferred it to the big bands.
I had spent like two hours for her skirt and i am really glad i didn't disappoint her.

THANK YOU.

I used to wear this type of skirt to work with elbow-length sleeves and jackets when I was younger and more active as a teacher. I think they are very elegant, especially if they are dark in color. It's great that the customer liked the changes, that's wonderful.
