DIY Maxi Skirt

Even beginners can sew up this knit maxi skirt. Use a bright floral to make a skirt that's perfect for spring!

When we were in Austin last weekend I stopped by Stitch Lab and picked up some bright floral fabric. I just couldn’t wait to sew up something so I started with this bright pixelated floral print. Since it’s a knit polyester and I had just less than two yards I decided to sew up a maxi skirt.

I used this pattern, which I purchased on Etsy, and pretty much followed it exactly. I did choose to hem the bottom for a more finished look. I cut the fabric in the petite length but ended up trimming 6″ off the bottom. The left side has a slit which makes it so easy to walk in. This fabric is so flowy and bright that it’s just perfect for spring (and almost year round here in Florida).

Even beginners can sew up this knit maxi skirt. Use a bright floral to make a skirt that's perfect for spring!
