red girl's skirt

Edit: I got the blouse done and it is in my wardrobe! I need to just wear it and not 'wait for something special'!
*****
Got the first skirt sewn for the Ethiopian charity. I need to hem it up, but am getting some input on length measurements for mid-calf for pre-teens. I think it will have a deep hem for letting out.

This is the fabric that was £1 a metre, (not the wool, but I think I only paid a bit for that anyway at a fabric sale somewhere.) I don't know the fibre content of this one, but there are flecks of shiney bits in the weave. I have a dress cut and partially sewn in this too. And I think I have enough to make another girl's skirt.
