Popped into the local fabric shop today to grab some Autumnal fabric for a tutorial blog on making a skirt and managed to walk out with some extras that definitely were not on the list! A perpetual problem that leads me to request more shelving regularly. Fox Panel and main fabrics The fabric is by Moda from designer Gingiber I got mine from here The Sewing Studio I managed to sneak away to the studio this afternoon and got the first skirt made and I love it. The geometric main fabric for the body of the skirt with the deep side pockets make for a stylish simple skirt that lets the fabric speak.  Front on  One side with a rabbit pocket Other side with a foxy pocket  I would team this with a plain long sleeved t-shirt in cream, a black cardigan, thick tights and chunky boots.
