Mod Mini Skirt Project: Green & White Arrow Pop Art Skirt (APPLIQUE)

Using my laptop to do digital design mockups

Okay, so here's the green corduroy, white arrow applique skirt. I made the design VERY simple this time. Now that I'm looking at it again, I'm still very happy with the proportions-- the smaller arrow looks good. On the other hand, now I'm wondering if I shouldn't add more arrows to the design, because it may be too simple. Ack! The madness of indecision.

Whatever the case, I'd love to hear opinions about proportions and the issue of simplicity of design versus complexity.

This time, I used a photo editing program to experiment with what design I wanted. My husband took a picture of me in the green skirt while it was plain. Then, I used clip art white arrows and other graphics to experiment with the design layout. This was a lot easier than pinning the templates to the skirt and having to constantly pin and unpin them.


All for now!


Happy sewing!
