Polkadot bubble skirt

I've been meaning to try out some new skirt designs for a long time. Other things have come up, and I've never had the time or headspace. But a customer is keen for a skirt for her daughter so I had the perfect opportunity last night to play around with a new design.


This skirt is dropwaisted with a gathered lower tier so it's nice and full.


I lined it with plain orange cotton so that the bottom edge is bubbled instead of hemmed.


I really like bubble hems, so I'm thinking about extending the pattern into a dropwaisted winter dress. What do you think, is it a Go? Maia was quite taken with it, so I already have one vote for 'Yes'...
