I saw this...


so I made this...
I made my skirt longer and went for a black elastic waist band. The hardest part was pulling the elastic band tight while sewing the skirt onto it. This required a second person to help pull the elastic. I also had to relearn how to do a blind hem stitch but I think I could whip up a second skirt fairly quickly now.
Ooh! I love it! Teach me please :)
ReplyDeleteSince you can whip up a second skirt quickly now, I will take one in solid yellow. Hemline at the knee please. Black waistband okay. Pockets optional.
ReplyDeleteAngie I can show you if you like. I found a tutorial for the same concept skirt after I made mine but we did construct ours differently.

Tara, I'm lacking the funds to make free gifts for people but if you compensate for the cost I can make a skirt for you. However, if you make a cousin for Matthew I might be able to make some free things for you...haha (evil laugh)
Turned out really cute! I like your fabric with the border design on the hem. Very chic. Tara, you make me laugh. Meg, she does have a birthday coming up. Ha ha.
