I sewed for myself.
Woot! Woot!
I found this fabric for $2 a yard at The Mart. Yup it is true, sometimes you can still find cute fabric while shopping for milk, eggs, and bread.
Right away I knew I wanted to make a skirt from it.
I looked over my Project Pinboard and came across this skirt I had pinned.
I decided this skirt was just perfect for my striped material.
I wanted my skirt to hit high at my natural waist and I opted out of the bow, but those are the only changes I made.
This skirt was easy to sew and I did it in an afternoon.
I even put in an invisible zipper...not super well, so don't look close. BUT hey I did it now and I feel a little braver.
This skirt is super fun and a great addition to my Summer wardrobe. I feel super lovely and all girly while wearing it. Boy I love wearing skirts. It is pretty much the best part of Summer for me.
Once again Pinterest, I love you.
What have you pinned lately? Do tell.
I am still a pinning machine. To keep up with my oh-so-fascinating pins, follow me on Pinterest.

You did a great job!!! Why is it that I only try my pinterest food, hmmmm.
It looks fabulous! It looks so professional; I would never guess you picked up the fabric just an aisle away from the butter and eggs.
Sweet find on fabric. We seem to be on the same wavelength lately. ;)
Adorable skirt. Really, so cute! Nice job.
I will definitely be making this skirt, my question to you is, did you make this one like your high waisted maxi skirts? I love your creations! You're awesome!
Erika, it is very similar! Thanks for being so sweet.
