What do you do with that extra yard of material?

In my case, you make a tennis skirt!


The skirt is a self-drafted nine gore pattern with a simple fold over elastic waist.  I put a ball pocket in the matching panties:



This is the original outfit I made with the material:


I am so glad I can finally wear short skirts and short sleeves.  Yay for spring...we have a week of spring in Atlanta.  Next week it will be full on summer, lol.
