A Corduroy Skirt

 Hello Readers. I have had some corduroy fabric in my fabric stash for a long time. I decided to make a vest and matching skirt with it. The skirt was going to be very simple because I did not have as much fabric as I thought I did. 

Before and after.

I had just enough for a simple knee length skirt. I was not using a pattern I was just winging it! I was going to make an elastic waistband because it would be simple and easy. It would also be hidden under the vest I made yesterday. I had 4 pieces of fabric here to make my skirt.

 I angled the top of each piece to make the waist a bit less bulky. 

 

I connected each panel with my serger.

 

That made a tube. 

 

I hemmed my skirt and made the casing for the elastic waistband. 

 

 This skirt was so simple and kind of a basic. It would match so much. It could be alone or with the vest.
 

I like them separate the best I think. The vest and skirt seem a little stiff and formal together. I am usually going more casual. Thanks for reading along, now go make something fun for yourself.
