I just finished my own version of this skirt, thanks to your tutorial! It’s adorable and I’m so excited to wear it this weekend. :-)

I did! It’s actually a modification of Simplicity 3835. I made the bottom a little bigger and then added the elastic under the bust to make it a bit more maternity. It worked great!

Thanks for explaining the waistband so clearly! I am needing to make a few skirts for the next few months and this sounds easy and perfect. I also have some t-shirts that have gotten too small in the top but are about perfect elsewhere. I can also probably use one or two of hubby’s if need. :)
I’m thinking pockets and trims and so much more fun!
Thanks for sharing!

Looks easy! Will definitely give it a try! Question- did you make the green and white leaf print shirt, too? If you did, care to share the instructions?

I love this skirt! I feel like most DIY skirts for pregnancy/post pregnancy are so puffy, and I’m just not the right shape for those. I like that this can easily be a pencil-like skirt later on. Very cute. Thank you!
