Tutorial: Color blocked bow skirt

Liz from Simple Simon & Co. shows the cutest color blocked bow skirt she made for her daughter. She’s sewn this design up many times since she originally published the tutorial. The neon and white you see here is allll kinds of fabulous, but so is the melon-y one that she shows in the original tutorial. Go to Simple Simon & Co. to see more of the neon version and to link to her tutorial. (Or, if you’re already totally in love with this design, you could just go straight to the tutorial here.)
