Description

This is the first skirt that I made, my second project ever, and I absolutely love it. It’s so funky and it was nice and easy to make, and with not much experience, by just reading the intructions i got this awesome skirt! I have had lots of compliments from people when I wear it to work etc.

Material Notes

Polyester Cotton $3/m - score! I used purple lining for the pocket, which looks awesome withe the colour of the skirt. I didnt have a matching button, and since i was so keen to finish the skirt to wear so i borrowed a spare black button. Will change it over later on.
