WIP Wednesday: Rosetta Skirt

The second half of the Rosetta skirt is almost done; I only have the ribbing for waist left to do. I've been curious about how the seams would look so decided to start. The photo below shows the "right side" of linen stitch, the seam at the top is stitched between the slipped stitches on the edge, the bottom is the invisible mattress stitch.

This picture shows the reverse side. The top is the reverse side of the traditional mattress stitch (invisible on the "right side"). You can see that it is a thicker seam. The bottom is the reverse side of the seam stitched between the slipped stitches.

If I stitch in the middle of the slipped stitches I can wear Rosetta as a reversible skirt, making the seam visible on both sides. However, after seeing Del's beautiful Dolman Pullover that has the seams on the outside, I'm tempted to do the regular mattress stitch making the seam invisible on the right side, with a bulkier seam on the reverse. What do you think?
