It's a Wrap

Skirt created from a single piece of fabric - no sewing!

The skirt I "made" was a piece of fabric I just wrapped around me to see how wide it was and then thought, hey! that looks kinda neat. I fooled around with it a bit more, this way and that and then, the next thing I knew - it was complete. I tried to see if I could find any fault with it, but no, it just looked good tied and draped like it was. So, a no-sew skirt. True confessions: I actually did end up running a few hand sewn stitches down the center where it folds together so it didn't accidentally fall open when I sat down...

Detail of tied knot in front - but could be worn on side or even the back!

I put it on and wore it that evening with a pink silk slip, my taupe silk and lace top, and my taupe tank top under that. woohoo. See Project Minima for all these refashions.
