| diy maxi skirt |
so i made this!
and it was SO SO SO super easy. i actually made one for my mom first, and added pockets to her skirt. then made another for me, sans pockets. seriously people - so easy. i can't wait to wear it. i'll probably wear it every day in palm springs, it's that comfortable :). and how fitting...the splendid skirt i saw in the nordstrom catalog? it's called the palm desert maxi. so i'm calling mine that too.
the original pattern is from elle apparel and it is everything it promises - easy, comfy, totally worth your time and energy. i did the whole thing on my sewing machine, though it made me long for a serger real bad. that is definitely on my list!
i have two+ yards of fabric left in the same color...maybe we'll do a little giveaway? who wants their own palm desert maxi? leave a comment below by friday 2.17 and we'll pick a winner at random!
