before I added the top facing

I needed to add the straps to the top, to be sure I add them in the right angle I placed them at the top, the way it is supposed to look later

dscf8256 then folded it over and pinned it in placedscf8257

and pinned the facing right side on the right side on top

and sewed around, starting and ending at the end of the seam of the skirt parts to top part

and serged all around

now I turned the right side out

and pinned the ends of the straps in place

those buttons would fit well…

luckily I put it on to test the fit and noticed the straps are to long

I hope this was helpful for you! If you have any questions about this project so far, do not hesitate to ask!

Keep sewing and smiling
