Lookey lookey lookey what I made!
I have to say I'm pretty excited by this one, and it was so simple! Perfect for spring (even though today was Chicago's first big blizzard of the winter. :-P )

Yellow Party Skirt and Violin Endeavors
Hey 'yall!
I've tried to make clothing in the past and it always turned up less than ideal. AKA far too heinous to consider wearing outside where other eyes could see the monstrosity of a piece of cloth that I conjured up together. I found this tutorial though from Creative spaces.
It looked easy enough and it didn't make you cut those awful circle skirt weird shapes which I have not yet managed to make work out. A while back I had gone to Jo-Ann's Fabric on one of their 50% off the clearance section days and found this lovely linen type fabric that I thought might work for this. I ended up being just a little short of what they asked for which is why I think that my skirt looks more "tubular" and less "wavy" but I'm still happy with the result. I'm learning! Yay! Being short, I don't think I can pull off the high waisted shirts very well but we shall see.
