Ages ago, I picked up this crazy t-shirt at a yard sale, I knew the massive size would come in handy eventually!
Lots of great black and white stripes but this "lovely" logo...
I cut the bottom off for the main part of the skirt. The stripes running horizontal with the side seams already finished for me. The waistband was cut from the left over, stripes running vertically.
A few gathering rows and the two parts were joined.
While the skirt had a finished hem from the shirt, I decided it needed a little something more. Using the left over, I cut strips on the bias, about twice as long as the bottom edge of the skirt.
Here's two of the outfits I've used it with lately, and I'm pretty sure it'll get a lot of wear with solid tank tops this summer:
Peace be with you,
