Tweed, Leopard and Silk

I don't really do animal prints, but a little touch here and there I like, so this ribbon had to be used to finish my silk lined Linton Tweed Maude Skirt.

I've been saving this tweed for a couple of years, and I'm so glad I finally decided to use it on another Maude Sample.

Maude is such a versatile skirt, I keep thinking of samples I want to make instead of getting on with grading and printing ready for my patient testers.
She is nearly there. Keep up with her progress on Instagram.

    Wow that looks lovely, very chanel! The finish looks fantastic too. I've been thinking of a black wool skirt with a mod vibe and this could be just the pattern
