Flounced Jean Skirt

Here is a different version of a jean skirt from a pair of jeans.  I used a pair of jeans, but a short skirt would be even easier, and a pair of jean shorts would work fine too.  The pattern for the flounce came from my friend Janey.  To make the jean skirt part, follow the directions found in the previous post: Jean Skirt.   For the flounce, cut 2 pieces of curved material, like the following pictures.  I had my material folded in 4s to make it easier.
Follow the directions from the previous post, Adding Length to a Dress, to attach the flounce.

    1. Well, I just folded my fabric and drew it free hand... You can try using a large bowl or plate to trace a better curve. Good luck!
