My mom suggested pinning it to a taper than taking another pic. Duh. That makes sense! I'll do that later along with pinning it a bit shorter. </p> <p>Anyway, the fabric is cotton. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taper-this-skirt#post-649872 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:47:01 +0000 lyn67 649872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes please, just a bit:-) great job, you are so skilled! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taper-this-skirt#post-649610 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 23:17:58 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 649610@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with shortening it to knee length. Great job. I admire those who have useful talents. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taper-this-skirt#post-649602 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 23:09:48 +0000 Transcona Shannon 649602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so in awe of anyone who can sew - this is a lovely skirt! It will look even more smashing with a bit of taper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taper-this-skirt#post-649597 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 23:03:10 +0000 Deborah 649597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a lovely skirt! I think tapering slightly will create a little more shape which would be flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taper-this-skirt#post-649552 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 22:00:53 +0000 Angie 649552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are clever! I like the idea of tapering it a little. Fab skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taper-this-skirt#post-649550 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 21:57:15 +0000 Vicki 649550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's pretty and I think kitty approves! Since I'm not a seamstress, I won't make suggestions on alterations, but if you do decide to wear flat or low-heeled shoes or sandals, taking up the hem a tad may work best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taper-this-skirt#post-649527 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 20:46:52 +0000 Victoria 649527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would suggest tapering it slightly and also shortening it to the knee as I think it would be a more flattering lengh if you plan to wear it with flats. I do love the fabric, its pretty fabulous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taper-this-skirt#post-649524 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 20:42:38 +0000 Janet 649524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You made it? Awesome! It doesn't appear A-line to me, so I don't think tapering is needed. What kind of fabric is it? I'd kind of like to see it with a little bit of a heel, at its current length at least. I think it would look great with flats just a little bit shorter, with the hem hitting just below the knee, but I know everyone's wearing skirts a little longer these days, so maybe that's a judgment call. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taper-this-skirt#post-649522 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 20:34:37 +0000 teeandcee 649522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Does anyone think this skirt needs to be tapered to more of a pencil type? I wear it casually. For instance, I wore this outfit to the doc's office today. </p> <p>I made it, by the way. Kind of proud of myself. The kitty likes the feline stripes. </p>
