About a year ago I picked up a remnant at Joann's; it was this darling yellow floral fabric, but I only had about a quarter yard of it. There are only so many things that you can do with a quarter yard of fabric, and this project is one of them (alright, so this used two separate quarter yard cuts, but still very little fabric). I call it the buttercup skirt.
This little skirt has two layers, and a very slight paper bag waist. I made a 0-3 month skirt, and I'll give you my dimensions, but you could easily adjust the pattern to fit your little one. The pattern is really simple.
Materials:
