This is the first skirt I made. I had a lot of trouble understanding the waistband directions but I finally got it finished. I used a heavy denim material. There is a hole in the waistband that the tie goes into. Because the denim is so thick, it's hard to get the tie through the hole. This means I never have to worry about the skirt coming untied and falling off.
The skirt is a little big. There's some excess fabric in the back. The side of the skirt hits the hole for the tie so I can't pull it any tighter. The skirt was too long so I decided to shorten it. I'm not sure if I will make this skirt again. If I do make again, I will use a thinner fabric and make the side panels a little smaller.
