LARGE Sassy Serged Skirt

Great pieced skirt, using 4 coordinating fabrics. Works well in quilting cottons, rayons, silks, and soft wool challis. One size fits 34-45" hip, for XL and XXL, add on extra panels. The vertical lines make for a slim look with very litle fabric bulk at the waist which is flattering to all figure types. This skirt can be made up just as easily on the sewing machine as on the serger, using a zigzag to finish the seam allowances.
