Summer print pencil skirt

I was really taken with the Canterbury Bells skirt at J.Crew, so I was keeping an eye out for a similar print.  I was delighted when I saw this print at Gardams.  The stretch cotton was a little lightweight for a pencil skirt, so I interlined the skirt with some stretch cotton sateen.  Now it is probably a bit heavy for me to wear in summer, but it will get plenty of wear during Spring.

As I was sewing the skirt, Belinda did a post on seam binding.  I had purchased some but never used it.  Belinda is always posting useful bits of information just as I need it :).  I got it out and used it to bind the edges near the zipper.   You can also see my basting where I attached the skirt outer and interlining, to hold the layers together until I stitched them.  I didn't line the skirt, as I thought the interlining was more than enough.
