Colorful Crafting with Jen: Indygo Junction Its a Wrap Skirt

Many moths ago, we received a shipment of My Folklore from Lecien and I instantly fell in love with "Orange Wildflowers". Since I didn't know what I wanted to make, I bought three yards so that I could have a choice of projects when I finally made a decision. It sat on a special shelf in my craft room until last weekend. My decision was made when Mari told me it was going to be warm and humid in Japan (Joelle and I are going to be there next week as guests of 7 Island's Fabrics for the Japan Hobby show!) Skirts are perfect for me in hot humid weather but, I'm shorter than average so they are often too long for me. I searched through our skirt patterns here at purlsoho.com and was convinced that Indygo Junction's "It's a Wrap" was going to be the answer to my style/weather conundrum.
This skirt was quick, simple and super fast to make. I laid out the fabric at 4:30 pm and had the skirt on to cook dinner by 6:30, (even after sewing through my finger while working on projects for my upcoming wedding, ouch)! You will need three yards of fabric, coordinating thread and of course the pattern! Enjoy!! --Jen
