What was your inspiration?

When I was in college, I made wrap skirts for my dorm mates. Seeing them back in style, I had to make one!

What are you most proud of?

I made a couple of useful changes to Heather's instructions and give you a tutorial on hand stitching a narrow rolled hem. See them on my blog.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

The hem will take the most time because you're circling your body one and a half times- just be patient! The results are worth it.
