Three little summer skirts

We had a splendid summer vacation in Provence, France, last summer. Can you imagine what pressure a woman can create herself when travelling to a country where women are worldwide known to be very elegant even in everyday basis? So I desided I needed at least new skirts for the trip. The pattern is from Ottobre, which seems to be my pattern library in every sewing project I do. The issue is 5/2007. This is one of the few skirt models fit me well. I just wonder how many times I will use it again in the future.

The material is from Marimekko outlet. I guess it was used in some of their collections.

Made from Estonian linen.
I got to admit sewing three similar skirts is very boring at the same time though easy and practical...

Something very little

for our godson for Christmas. The pants and the shirt are made using Ottobre patters. The car application was the first one I have ever done. It was great fun.
