Description

The fabric for this fun wrap skirt came from a comforter I was given a few years ago. The comforter was polka dots on one side but striped on the other, so the colors matched perfectly! I hand-dyed the pocket blue and added the pin-tuck ruffled edge (though they are a bit large to be truly considered pin tucks…) This was from a pattern I found at goodwill, so I have no idea what brand or number it was. It was really windy the day we shot these photos at Seattle’s Olympic Sculpture park – thus the crazy hair! I also made the jacket, posted last year on Burdastyle.
