I made that skirt! It's the second one in this style I have made, but it's first I am completely happy with and super happy (and smug) to wear out in public. I wore it to work the day after I finished it over a plain black vest and with a black cardigan (which I thought looked super smart). Then I found this super cute spotted vest in H&M, perfect paring!
The 'One Hour Skirt' title isn't misleading at all. You really can bust out these babies that quickly! The tutorial is super easy to follow, I had no issues with it at all. I only made one alteration; I added about 6" to my hip measurement so that there was more fabric to bunched up. What do you think?
What next? I want to make a midi-skirt (or two) with pockets, using the same basic pattern. I have already seen some beautiful floral fabric I want to use. AND, I may have found the dress pattern for me over at Dixie DIY.
