Riah's Ruffled Skirt

This is a little sneak preview of the new skirt I'm making for Riah.
Two little ruffles about 1" up from the hem, and some hand ruched vintage rayon seam binding to cover the stitching on the top ruffle. I love doing this ruching, it's easy and sort of quick, but it looks fantastic! 



See, you just do a little running stitch along the seam binding in a zig zag pattern, then pull it up so it's gathered, then pin it down. I will have to go back and hand sew it on to the skirt, but that's ok. It's too cute not to!   

This skirt, once finished will probably be available in the Pretty Jane shop for custom order. And wait till you see the sweater I put together  (it doesn't go with this skirt) it surprised even me! :)
