    First I measured my big part of my hips...then i measured from the floor to my waist...and then i decided i wanted the bottom to be 70 inches around...

    so i took my fabric and angled it from my small measurement to my large measurement..making it the length from my waist to the floor.

    then all i did was straight stich and serge the edges...and did a hem .. and a simple waist band w/ a strand of hemp as the tie...

    that's it! so simple...and i think it looks pretty cute..it's more of a summer skirt..but, eh ... doesn't hurt to get a head start...:)

    It's good when you can take the time to make your own clothes. That's a narly piece. It fits you perfectly, you made it for you, looks great.[​IMG] I'd try making other skirts with it too.. try light yellow's and brown's, why not.
