This fabric was originally going to be a tunic, but the fabric was just too pretty not to use for a skirt. I added a lining, and used a double layer of contrasting fabric at the bottom instead of folding it up because I didn’t have enough of the flower print. I also left off the two stripes at the top.
I had to take in the skirt a little, probably because I didn’t press the fabric well before I cut it, and it stretched out. It might still be just a little too big, I’m not sure.
