I highly, HIGHLY recommend this book: 
Sew far (sew far/So far.... get it?? *giggle, giggle, snort*!!) I have made 6 skirts from it!! I had basic sewing skills from when I was a teenager but that's all the skills you need in order to do this! It teaches how to draft a pattern from your size! and it's not hard (ie- you don't need to be a math major!) and it has cute unique ideas!
Here's two of my skirts that I have made so far:

Oh my goodness, Candace...I can't believe you made that adorable skirt!! It looks great with that shirt and how fun that you found a brown and turquoise bracelet to go with it. What's the chance of that. :) Fun, fun! Thanks for sharing.
Wow, I envy your ability to sew. The skirts are super cute.
And I am lovin the bracelets...turquoise and brown is my fave combo lately.

So glad you could link into our Frugal Fashionista party. I know everyone will love your cute skirts. They look so comfy. It would be great if you could add in a little link back to us so that everyone can find the fun. Thnx. :)
Oooops!! Sorry, Jen, I linked back and I guess I deleted it somehow!! *running off to fix the problem*
Wow! great job. Thanks for the advice on the book. I love wearing skirts. I think that it is really cool that you used a sheet!
