A while back, Leonie wrote a fabulous post about making a skirt ... without an over-locker!!! Oh joy!!!!!
(Note the link to the adjustments for adult sized skirts)
She called it "Simple wrap skirt from scraps".
Well, I have to say, Leonie, you weren't talking about patchwork scraps.
I needed some LARGE pieces (especially to fit over my large bum!)
But the end result is fabulous ... if I do say so myself ...
It has 2 front panel options, depending on how you tie it ...
And the other panel peeps out the side to add a bit of interest ...
Thanks Leonie. You rock!!!
Andi :-)

Oh...You are smoke'in in that SKIRT!!! It looks FANTASTIC!! I love the fabrics you used they have come up magical. Congratulations to you MRS!!!! xx
As usual your fabric choices are simply gorgeous!
Looks fab xx
This is so cute, I want to make one! I'm curious about something, in the tutorial, the pattern looks angular, is the skirt angular? It doesn't look like it when it's on though, interesting but LOVE IT!
I want to make on ... instantly!!!!!
Well done you!!! That skirt looks fabulous.
(Which reminds me... I made a skirt at my first craft camp and all I have to do is hem it. It's been about 2 months.... really should get onto that...)
Love your skirt Andi!
Looks fab!
Sometimes I feel like the best crafting of all is the crafting you can wear out the front door.
How much fun will it be when someone asks you where you got your gorgeous skirt! X
That is truly a fab skirt - great colours Andi - off to check out the tute now.

I might even be brave enough to try that.

That looks great!!
You know what? I would never in a katrillion (that's a lot) years, think to put those fabrics together in a skirty fashion. Just goes to show, you learn something new...
Love it- looks fabulous!
Leonie rocks but you are rockin' that skirt lady friend! Woot! Nice work!
I've starred you in reader because that skirt is gorgeous ... including the patterned fabric. i love it.
I'm also bookmarking as that is perfect!
That skirt looks brill (love the colours) - I'm off to find the pattern!
hey...you could make it reversible...using maybe blues on the underside for another entirely different look...have 4 skirt looks in one skirt then...
What a fantastic skirt, so bright and cheery. I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the large print fabric (and would love to know what it is).
What an amazing skirt! I love it. Enjoy wearing it.
Love the skirt, but it seems that Leonie's blog is no longer where it was. Do you know if she's migrated it to somewhere else? I'd love to try making this :-)
