I owe you a pic of this skort in action. Well, taking a break on the beach is where it came in very handy.

Henley Beach, Adelaide on Australia Day. |
We hired some bikes and cycled from town to the beach on the road and then cycled back along the Torrens river. The return trip was 22kms so it wasn’t a hard ride. The bag that I’m holding had my cycling gear in it plus a standard issue hotel towel. It was a 38C day but because Adelaide has dry heat it was bearable and great to get away from our rainy summer.

At West Beach a few days later. |
This time we took a Go-Get car to hang out at the beach for the afternoon. This skort is now my favourite beach skirt. I really love Jalie patterns.
Cute skort and you look so beachy cool.

Love the skort and the sunny weather – not much sunshine happening up in Brissie at the moment!!!
Anyway, I have nominated you on my blog for the Versatile Bloggers Award – congratulations!!! It was passed onto me from a fellow Aussie sewer, so I am also passing it onto other Aussie sewers that I enjoy following…

Thanks for your encouragement. Most of the time I feel like a very ordinary blogger. I look at what everyone else does and get motivated to do new things.

The bright sand almost looks like snow (:
The skort is so cute and practical. Sounds like you had a wonderful trip. The pattern tempts me, but possibly I imagine I'm more sporty than I actually am (:

Thank you so much for explaining, and it makes perfect sense to me now 😀
I've never heard of seam great, but it does sound very useful. You don't see much of the purpose-made good stuff over here, and one has to improvise the best one can.

Hi,
Re: Comment left on PR regarding my skorts! I bought the bicycle gripper elastic on Ebay. Min lot was 15m so I have stacks left over. If you are happy to pay for postage I will send you some. My email addy is the(dash)stans(at)bigpond(dot)com. Great skorts too!
