Variation on a Theme

A variation on the circle skirt is one I like to call: The "I-haven't-got-enough-material-for-a-circle-skirt" Skirt. It comes in handy especially when you're nicking leftover fabric from your best friend!

No prizes for guessing who the fabric-nicker is!

And another example:

So fold your small leftover bit in half, and cut out this:

Pin right sides together and sew up the sides, stop before you get to the top edge, leaving a gap so that your elastic will be able to go in when you fold over to make the casing - again, see previous post about circle skirts, and follow the rest of the instructions to finish your fabric-saving skirt!
