Flip Skirt for Claire

Claire is a girlie girl and that means she would rather wear a skirt that pants for shorts. It also means she loves to twirl. I remember a dark green flip skirt my Grandma made for me in elementary school that I loved. It twirled and flipped and had a matching vest. I was inspired to find a free pattern to make Claire something similar. This is what I found:





And this is what I made:
It didn't turn out as cute as I hoped, but I blame that on the fabric. This was a pretty good tutorial, but it left out a couple of steps that I wouldn't have known to do if I was a very beginner sewer. That being said, I am considering making some more, but I don't know yet if I want to try this again or try a new pattern.
