Skirt: done!

I completed the challenge this month!  I started experimenting with making a pair of (maternity) jeans into a skirt, but quickly lost interest in that - after spending an hour picking out the legs.  So I looked through my stash of fabric and found this piece that I had bought as a remnant some time ago, and used this tutorial to make the skirt.  It is much longer than the one in the tute because I put the waist below the baby bump (mountain?) and because I used polyester fabric that is 60" wide, instead of cotton that is only 45" wide.  I will be able to wear it around my waist when I'm no longer expecting, and can easily take more of the elastic in if need be.
