The Yellow Maxi-Skirt

In an earlier post, I put up photos and wrote about dying old blue jeans to yellow, using RIT Lemon Yellow.

What I'm Wearing Today

Wearing my yellow maxi with

• Thrift store white knit top
• Sanita yellow clogs with wood heels

Step-by-step:

Measuring & Marking where to cut the inserts
(For a terrific tutorial on basic jeans to skirt transformations, see THIS)

After cutting the inserts, iron them.

Sew up the crotch first, so that it falls flat later.

I kept the front's outer edges 'rough' and pinned the insert underneath.

I folded the back's outer edges and ironed.
THEN I pinned the insert underneath.
