culotte (skirt-pants)

The first time I saw the model, I've fallen in love .. but to make one? I have to challenge myself. First, I didn't have the perfect fabric (I got a picture what fabric I would love to make: it should be thick enough, but not stiff .. so the culotte would sit nicely, still "flowing" but not see-through for a skirt-pants) until one day I saw this fabric in a textile shop nearby, a leftover fabric with only 140 m long for CHF 18. My heart said: grab it!, my mind said: you need to be extra careful and creative using the fabric) ..

I followed both voices, my inner voice said I could do it .. and so this is the result when a fabric seemed to "talk" to you and you just need to follow the voice inside your head ...

the final result

ready to go on a holiday ..

the making ..
