DIY Gingham Circle Skirt

What seemed like ages ago, I pinned this gingham dress by Oscar de la Renta for a future sewing project and forgot about it. It wasn't until I saw this pop up on Sarah Vickers' Instagram that I remembered that I already had the gingham fabric on hand.

DIY Gingham Circle Skirt
Difficulty: Easy

Time: ~1.5 hrs

Materials:

• 1 yard of 56-60" wide fabric (I had 1.5 yds of 45" and I had to carefully piece out the back to match up the gingham squares. While this is doable, it adds complexity to a project that should be easy)
• 9" invisible zipper
• Optional interfacing (more info in this tutorial)

I used this great tutorial for the skirt, but added a waistband (tutorial here) and zipper (tutorial here) instead of elastic. I love the drape of a circle skirt - uber feminine.
Hope everyone had a great weekend!
