Think of all the things you can do in 20 minutes….You can drive your kids to school, fold laundry, watch an episode of Last Man on Earth (are you watching that? SO funny),
OR…..
You could sew a really awesome pencil skirt!
And all your friends will think it came from their favorite store, because it’s gonna be all professional and amazing looking.
This might be my favorite MADE Everyday video to-date!….because the project is so easy, with big payoff.
HUGE return on your investment.
• We’re going to make the skirt fit your body perfectly
• We’ll sew on a standard machine—my BabyLock works wonderfully, and I’ll show you a few stretchy stitches I like to use on my machine.
• We’ll make a really polished-looking waistband that’s easier than you think—no stringing the elastic through a waistband!
And when you’re done, you’ll spend the next 20 minutes (20 hours?) in stripey style.
Yay!
Okay, I’ll stop talking and let you watch.

FABRIC NOTES:
For these skirts, you can use jersey knit or interlock knits (read more about sewing with knits HERE.) The fabrics I used are from Hobby Lobby and from the LA Fabric District.
