My New Skirt!

I am going to be in a parade this upcoming weekend and wanted to make my skirt to wear in it. I started with a yard of a beautiful fabric I found at my local fabric store. Then I hemmed all four sides. After words, I cut a circle in the middle as an area for a waist band and connected wide elastic. Afterwards I added a couple of pickups on the front of both sides and left the back two corners long. This is what I ended up with. What a great way to spend a rainy day.
