Sew: All Wrapped Up! Make Your Very Own Reversible Wrap Skirt

June 20, 2012

I have been forever jealous of Hellpixies fabulous skirts (if you don’t sew, you can always by one from the lovely Hellpixie) but wanted to give making my own a go. I mean what is more useful than a dual sided wrap skirt? I love wrap – wrap tops, wrap skirts, wrap dresses. And this skirt gives me TWO choices of what to wear in one garment.

So, I’m really beginner sewist but I love a challenge.This is only my third project, so trust me when I say you really can do this. I bought the fabric for this project, washed, dried and ironed it. I pinned up and realized I’d bought less fabric than I needed, oops! I bought more fabric, washed, dried and ironed it. Then I made it…….in only 4 hours.
I mostly followed this tutorial but used excess fabric instead of ribbon to create the ties. I made extra long ties and did not make inside ones. I also didn’t use their pattern, I used a wrap skirt pattern I already had.
I am in love with it and super proud that I could make such a garment! I explained it to Mr Ask who couldn’t quite fathom how it would work. He says it requires 3D thinking lol. But here she stands. If the first tutorial didn’t rock your boat or you want to see how someone else does it have a look here. So dust of that machine, have faith in yourself  and have a go today xxxxx
