Maxi Skirt

For some reason, I got this crazy idea to make a maxi skirt. You see, I'm short. I can't just go out and buy one of these. The pictures aren't so great & I really didn't take any during the process. I've started playing with my serger on these.

Here's the tutorial I used:

For this one, I haven't actually finished it off. It was a quick "can I even do this?" mock-up.
Sorry about how dark this one is! 
The one below, I finished off so that I could wear it on the plane on a very long trip to Singapore. It's really comfortable, especially with Jockey Skimmies under (love those things!). I've learned that:
1) I need to take these in another inch or so,
2) I need to pay attention to the band & which way it's going on, and
3) I need to add another 1-2 inches at the bottom.

Otherwise, I really like it and can't wait to make more of them!

Kitty Wendy decided she needed to be in the picture too!
