Steampunk-ish Skirt Refashion

I thought I'd try to add a bit of steampunk style to my wardrobe. Here's a plain black, woven stretch cotton skirt I picked up at Savers for $4. Sorry the pic's a bit dark!

I made a panel of ruffles with some scraps from a dress I'd made previously.

I cut a panel out of the back of the skirt. (I measured it quite a few times first!)

Then I sewed in the ruffles!

For a bit more detail on the process, head over to the blog.

have a great day everyone!
