Bumblebee skirt!

I grabbed some cheap fabric in order to test out the pattern that _dragonwolf_ made her super cute skirt with, and whipped it up in a few hours. It's wicked cute, even if it's not perfect.

Next time, I will make bigger apron pockets and wider, sillier pleating. AND MEASURE BETTER.

I wanted to make a skirt that sat on my hips, so I made a wider waistband and measured out hips plus seam allowance. Except I apparently don't use up ANY seam allowance, so the skirt ended up huge on me. And I haven't ironed it out yet.

Anyone want a slapdash cotton and muslin bumblebee skirt?
