I’m really getting back into sewing these days!  This past weekend I made a navy & white striped skirt using an adapted tutorial found here. (There were some problems with the measurements in the tutorial, so I had to make a few changes. I think she has updated her instructions and they are now correct.)

I got about four yards of this fabric from Ikea for $1.99 (from the As Is section), and I used less than a yard, so it was very affordable to make (I just had to buy some $.99 elastic)!

It looks super cute with a t-shirt and flip-flops, but I also recently dressed it up a little more for church! It will be really fun to wear this summer.

I put cute yellow pockets in it, which I love!  They are like a little secret only I know about (well, now everyone who reads my blog knows too, but I’m okay with that).

Let me know if you make one too!
