Hi all! Yup, I'm still working through my Australia outfit photos! Nearly done, promise. Today I have a half circle skirt to show you, along with the beautiful background beaches of Rottnest Island which we visited whilst staying in Perth.

I traced around my black half circle skirt for the basic shape and added a rectangular waistband. A really quick and easy make. I really need to get hold of some knit interfacing, which would make the waistband just that little bit more stable. The skirt is hem-less because I didn't want it to become all fluted and distorted so I think I'll invest in some hem tape next time around. It's fine as is though.

I do feel that the outfit is a bit too basic and plain, which could have been brightened up with jewelry? But I feel that the jewelry I own is a bit much for meandering down the beach. Something to think about, anyway.

Rottnest Island was beautiful to walk around, even more so because it was practically empty and we had the beaches to ourselves. It was pure bliss, probably the best day of the holiday, excepting Sydney fabric shopping day!

Thanks so much for reading and to Ed for taking photos!
