I decided to make another skirt for agate13's Kanani.
This is a blue skirt (Ravenclaw colors!) with a Golden Snitch appliqued on it.
I got this idea directly from Pieces by Polly.
I just wanted to make a basic skirt pattern, so I used Simplicity 1244 by the Dollies' Dressmaker.
It appears that this pattern is now retired. I better be careful not to lose any of those tiny pattern pieces!
I appliqued on a Golden Snitch, using a pattern from Pieces by Polly, and adding stitching to look like the Snitch's flight pattern.
The result looks a bit like a 1950s Poodle Skirt.
What I had in mind was a skirt that Kanani could wear to a Quidditch match to show support for her team.
Anyway, it's definitely a unique addition to Kanani's wardrobe!

You can see what I made for Secret Snarker in 2016 and in 2017 in older blog posts.
