little miss serious I

So i wanted to make a suit that i could wear to work and wanted to try out a few more of the free (or super-cheap) patterns from Burdastyle. I got some plain grey suiting just to try the patterns out before i decided to adapt them. I put together 3 patterns that I thought would work and this is the first piece.
This is the Jenny skirt. Very simple and quick, high-waisted and fully lined. I bound the internal seams which made a bit of a bump that you can see around the bottom seam, but this is the quickest way to secure the seams and will last forever, so i'm not too worried.
I'm seeing this in a woolly tweed with a brown leather waist band and little horse-shoe buckles...ooo!!
