Try-it-out Tuesday: easy, perfect skirt

     I hit the skirt jackpot while on my mad sewing spree a few weeks ago. This skirt tutorial is so easy and the results are lovely. The darts give this skirt a great shape and there's no messing around with buttons or zippers. I whipped this up on a Friday afternoon and have already worn it several times -- with a camisole to pick up some cheap school supplies at the sweltering-hot office supply warehouse, and a little more dressed up with a black tank for class.

  1. Ooh, pretty little fans! I love wrap skirts so much. They fit on skinny days and bloated days and every day in between.

  4. Thanks, Kat! Do you have a sewing machine? :) It's amazing how this project starts out with a rectangle of fabric and ends up as a well-fitting skirt.
