At the end of last week, I made an impulsive purchase of the latest Clothkits skirt kit "Ruby". It was cut out and sewn before I had time to change my mind!
The Press Release suggests it has something in common with the dress Lily Allen wears in the video of her latest song... except she has empty frames on her dress and this skirt has frameless photos.
The images are from 1935: Epping, Sidmouth, Henley... FL took one look and snorted something about the English middle classes and that this skirt had absolutely nothing to do with me or my heritage, and why was I flaunting somebody else's family album - especially such a privileged one?

OMG I had not thought so deeply about the political ramifications of a skirt's print! That will teach me not to impulse buy! Cherry cake and (lashings of) ginger beer anyone?!
However, class struggles aside, I have a new skirt and I love it.
Easy to sew, now available up to a size 20 - if you have never sewn a skirt, the Clothkits cotton poplin prints are a good place to start.
But make sure you have a new needle for your sewing machine as the weave is pretty dense: many of my pins failed to pierce it.
