How to make a bubble skirt

This seasons fashion must have is a floral skirt. I love the look of a bubble skirt and when I found a vintage floral sheet at a thrift store I knew it's destiny. I watched and read every bubble skirt tutorial I could find. After several trial and errors (2 completed ugly skirts) this pattern is what I find to be the best way to go about making a bubble skirt. It is a fairly simple sewing pattern. It does require a little extra time because part of it must be sewn by hand.

Thanks for viewing!

You're right. I was number 30 when I entered. Now all of a sudden there are 90 entries. Still though those are excellent odds for all of us who entered. Good luck. :-)

you make that adorable cape. How wonderful! Good luck to you too!!!

[jadekikyo]

Yes I did. Thank you very much. I really enjoy seeing the entries like yours where you've made something from scratch on your own without a pattern or someone elses tut. I feel like it's a greater accomplishment. You know?

[The Gingham Ginger]

Agreed. Especially when it takes you multiple tries, lol.
