What a lovely skirt! I think I might want to look into making something similar. I love funky skirts with interesting deigns and colors, but too often the ones I like end up not fitting my ridiculous hips. Thanks for inspiring me!
biggrin That's why I'm a fan of elastic waist bands
cool That and they're super easy to whip up! Only the more fabric you add, the heavier it gets so you kinda have to pull it up often.
xd I keep it at my waist 90% of the time so it just rests there on my curves, lol.
I hear you. I love skirts that have ties you can pull to tighten it, too. I've got that whole hourglass thing, where my hips are really broad but my waist is small in comparison. It's hard to find skirts that aren't too loose around the waist but can make it around my hips. >_< Hurray for elastic!
I have that same problem, only my hips are so extremely curved that elastic doesn't sit. If it's too high, it scoots up to my waist, which is uncomfortable because of my bad back, and if it's too low, it slips off. Drawstrings or shaped waistbands are best for me because they stay put much better.
