Rainbow Skirt

FloorLengthRainbow.jpg

Flickr user Crafty Intentions spent five months sewing this intricate, floor-length rainbow skirt, which features 10 tiers of 4" x 4" patchwork squares. It's like Scarlett O'Hara meets Willy Wonka--in the best possible way, of course!

Ignore the critics in the family

Like the comment above, I would have placed this comment on the Craftster page if I could.

Just to say that I can see three things wrong with this skirt so far as some of your family are probably concerned. 1) it's not a pair of jeans. 2) it was not bought from a high-street chain store. 3) it states that you use your time to do things other than watch the TV.

Your friend clearly adores the skirt. I hope that your partner does too. I would say it was well worth the effort. Congratulations.

Absolutely gorgeous

I love this skirt and I'm thinking about making one too but going from white to light green to medium green. I saw this originally on craftster and loved it, don't let them get you down!

Good Job!!

Rainbow skirt

This skirt is just beautiful! You did such a wonderful job on the colours. Rainbow truly describes this!

Total Awe.

I'd leave a comment on the original page where I found it, but I'm not a member of Craftster ):

I am in complete awe and in total love with this skirt. While I know I'd never be able to complete something like this, I am very much inspired to make one of my own. I love big, flowy skirts and I love rainbows, what I great combination >3<

Woo Hoo!

What an accomplishment! I love sewing and fabric and color and just a touch of quilting like in this project. How did you finish the top of the skirt?
