Okay since I am done with school now I've been thinking I want to try my hand at more sewing projects! It's so intimidating to me... but skirts are always a good place to start because they tend to be more simple than other garments. Also, it is next to impossible to find modest skirts that I like, and it's much cheaper to just make one if you can score some pretty fabric on sale or at a thrift store! I found these 10 different tutes and I can't decide which one to use. I'm thinking just a basic gathered elastic waist first maybe... Which one of these is your favorite?
Knit Pencil Skirt // Suburbs Mama
Gathered Skirt with Band // Say Yes to Hoboken
Lace Tutu Skirt // Lipstick and a White Tee
Maxi Skirt // Simple Bliss -Tulle Skirt // Nicole Porter
Polka Dot Elastic Skirt // Suburbs Mama
Scallop Hemmed Skirt // Uber Chic for Cheap
Stretchy Pencil Skirt // Cotton and Curls
Tulip Wrap Skirt // Cotton and Curls

I'm sorry about that! This is a very old post. The link to the skirt post is below, although it doesn't actually have a tutorial, just a reference to a sewing pattern she used. The link to the big bow is also below!

Oh, I love all of these skirts. I've seen some floating around on pinterest, but they didn't have the right links, so I'm so glad you have all of them :)
