Made following this excellent tutorial. Having cut out the main piece of the skirt the waist opening appeared to stretch to ridiculous proportions - if you're making this skirt yourself don't panic. Just pin and stretch the waistband to fit, and everything will be ok. Having said that - cutting out the bottom hem before cutting out the waist opening would have made it easier to get a circular, rather than oval, skirt (although it was nothing a rotary cutter couldn't fix). Now, off to twirl... ;)
