My First Skirt (that I Made Myself)

I have wanted for a while to make my own skirt to wear. It was a pretty fun project and I had some direction from my wife but I did it 100% on my own. It feels very good to wear it today after spending the time to make it. What do you all think? (The photos were taken with my iPhone, so sorry about the quality. I tried to clean them up to make them presentable).

Why thank you for the kind comments! I hurt to stand on my 4" heels because I am recovering from an avulsion fracture to my ankle. But the pics wouldn't look the same with my air cast on. :)

The dress is absolutely beautiful, you did a wonderful job on it. I want to get a sewing machine so I can start designing and making my own clothes. Also you do have a great set of legs that I would kill for. B)

Take care and keep up the good sewing

I totally agree with my sisters. The skirt is adorable, Diana. Just the right length.

I love your shoes too! And those legs, wow!

Looking great, sis!

Omg, that is a wonderful skirt! It looks so pretty and so good feeling! I love the stockings that you put with it, and those shoes!

To die for!

Awesome work!

I think that someday soon I may be browsing at the mall and a "Diana Prince" will catch my attention out of the corner of my eye from the storefront window. I believe I would then pivot on a 4-inch heel to a 90-degree turn and start reaching for my purse (with whiplash, of course)!

Well done!

Diana,

The ability to sew and create clothes for yourself is a great gift, which I expect you will continue to do in the future. I have to have everything made for me at considerable expense, and I envy you your freedom.

That's a great pleated skirt. Enjoy !

Yes, I do plan on continuing to do so in the future. It was nice to have the skirt as the result, but it also felt very good making it. I am not certain which pattern I am going to work on next. Perhaps all of you can help me decide. Here are the options (these are the pattern pics, so I will probably choose a different color).

Diana, I really love both of the long skirts (the first and third pics). Just my personal preference, but

I've always thought the longer pencil skirts are so elegant and feminine.

Hi Diana.

Very professional job!

I have started sewing lessons myself and my first project was to make my 8 years old daughter some summer Pyjamas.

I plan on making her a floral summer dress next and then am going to make myself a nice blouse.

I like both the first and third skirt as I think the second skirt whilst sexy is way too young for me. :D

That looks really nice Diana. Good luck with the next one, can't wait to see it. I have thought about making my own clothing before but I don't know where to start. Can we look forward to the "Diana Prince" range of fine female clothing for the discerning male? :D

      Good morning @Adrianna Danielle   I’m glad you agreed to the paternity test.    My Uncle found himself in a similar situation and after the test he was faced with explaining his infidelity and one night stand to his wife and family. Not only did the test come back; “YOU ARE THE FATHER” she looked like a sister to the other children in his family. This was a “23 & Me” moment confirmed by an independent test. The most important reason for the young lady to search for her father, was medical history and peace of mind. The blessing of the test was her understanding and willingness to disappear into obscurity. That was not what my Uncle or his family wanted to happen. She was family and they wanted to know her and eventually love her as a family member. The next 4th of July family gathering, she was introduced to the rest of her extended family and I gained a cousin. My prayers for you as you navigate all the possibilities, and I hope it works out for everyone involved.    Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Well I’m short on time again!   I had to move to the couch around 3:15 this morning. Unfortunately my wife’s med vac was making a lot of noise which woke me up and I couldn’t sleep. Then I over slept because my alarm wasn’t set correctly, my fault.    @Mirrabooka Hobart is a beautiful city and Tasmania is a wonderful place to visit. I was there several times in the 80s.    @Birdie Texas isn’t the only state with such laws.  Don’t try going to a public bathroom in Florida either. Now there laws aren’t based on chromosomes or anything like that but it’s a birth certificate as far as I know.  That Texas law is a tough one, really anti transgender in all respects. Except!  What if you have an extra chromosome?  Or DNA that’s flipped?  Did they think of that situation?  Medical theory suggests that is the case when it come to Transgender people, but especially the young ones.  Also, IQ, that tends to be higher than average.  There are a lot of things about us the medical science is studying, not just psychology.   got to go   Willow

      I started estrogen (oral) a little before age 50 and not the maximum dose either and also no blockers. It almost immediately accentuated the feminine features I already had, and expanded my already soft areas of skin, widened my hips and distributed more fat to my thighs and increased my breast size. There seem to be some subtle changes to my face too though I doubt I am any more passable than I was a decade ago, it’s just nice to not use breast forms anymore. I haven’t switched to injections as planned and there really hasn’t been much change after the first 6 months and my body fights back; my E levels dropped and T increased even on the same dose so it has not really done much for me. It sounds like injections are the far better way to go, plus progesterone after a while if the doctor will prescribe that.    As is often said, everyone is unique and one’s mileage may vary, and what works for one person may not for another.

      This is so sad. The violence in general in Washington State seems to have ramped up a lot, and gender-based violence and hate crimes seem to be worse as well. My parents once lived in Renton but I don’t care for that city and never go there. I don’t think it really matters though as crimes like this can happen anywhere and often are perpetrated by a male who was in a prior relationship with the victim.

      I’ve never been in therapy specifically labeled as such, butI think IFS therapy evolved from treatment of dissociative identity disorder in which one’s various alters or parts are treated as an internal family, and each part is like a separate individual who can be spoken to individually or have dialogue with other parts. In a person with full DID, doing that supposedly helps to break down the dissociative barriers that cause that person to not be able to remember what they did for parts of a day or longer. This was the case with me.   Anyone’s mind, though, can be thought of as being compartmentalized to some extent and we all can have an inner child and various aspects of our selves, yet the dissociation is never to a degree that it causes problems like with DID. But the same aspects of working with an internal family or different aspects of self, like the inner child, the rebellious teen, the persecutor parental type, etc, can help heal trauma nonetheless. I think many of us do have sides of us that we don’t like, or others don’t like, and it can be useful to examine how they came about and what purpose they serve as they are often a means of self-protection or coping with anxiety.

      We had soup and steamed rice for dinner tonight.  Simple, basic, feed-a-ton-of-people kind of food.  With strawberries for dessert!  We have a huge strawberry patch, so I spent a couple of hours this afternoon picking.  And there's some left over, which I put in the downstairs kitchenette.  Time for a late night snack!     Outside of meals, I mostly live by nibbling on fruit and a few green things.
