To say I have a lot of fabric is an understatement. Most of it is less than a yard, mainly because I buy it before I have a project for it. I am trying to change that habit, I haven't been in the fabric store since January (yeah me!). I love to use remnants, I see it like a fabric puzzle and that's just exciting.
With the goal of depleting my fabric stash, I mixed several fat quarters of various hot pink batik and made this skirt:
It's very full and twirls nicely, which makes it a lot of fun. I'm thinking of making some more, maybe with more contrast?
I'm also trying to figure out what to do with a few old bridesmaid dresses... Mod Cloth has a ton of fun party dresses, but I just can't decide what to do...
Peace be with you,
This turned out great! It doesn't look like fat quarters at all. I would be interested in seeing it with more contrast, but it looks really well designed as is.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute skirt for spring! Amazing that you were able to use the fat quarters to make it! Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteI am loving this skirt. What is the waist band like? I also buy fat quarters before projects. Great idea!
ReplyDeleteFor the waist band I folded it over to make a casing and used 1 inch no roll elastic in it, very easy
