Two circle skirts for the two girls.
Easy peasy, and yet quite fiddly, with a lot of fabric needed.
The fabric is from an eBay seller I buy from, Favourite Fabrics. 2.1m Temari Sakura Balls, Airforce Blue, cotton (£11.24 inc shipping)
I used a variety of Google sources for the circle skirt tutorials. I never got the maths quite right but I did a gathered waistband so it didn't have to be precise. The waistband gathers were a bit beyond my imagination for a while, but I got there in the end.
I made bias binding for the hem, using the last of the dyed shirt fabric. Making that much binding, pinning and sewing it all into place - twice - was the long road to the finish line for these beauties. I love how the colours match perfectly.
