A Quick Fix

The postman delivered a lovely parcel this morning - a fab autumnal floral skirt purchased as a treat from Boden.

Finding myself between sizes I decided I'd rather add some belt loops to the bigger size than not be able to breathe in the smaller one... but I'm too busy this week to sew on proper belt loops, and don't want it languishing unworn in my mending pile for ages.

So I've opted for a quick fix and sewn some temporary embroidery thread loops into the waistband so I can wear the skirt now and replace them with proper fabric loops later.
