TGTO

Meaning, Thank Goodness That's Over. 
The bed skirt beast was tamed, finally, late last night. Here's what it looked like as I stitched the last side. Followed by more measuring (MATH), ironing, trimming, and hemming. 


But even if I do say so myself, didn't the corner pleats come out nicely?  My daughter and her husband didn't want pleats along the sides, so I needed to hide the joins somewhere in the pleat. 
Ha!  Got it done. I did save myself a bunch of time by using the finished edges of the sheet set for the skirt part. 

The couple were very grateful. They promised not to change their color scheme  quite awhile :)

Well done! I've never made a bed skirt. Clever and time saving to use the sheet edge. What's next?

Good job - wrestling with all the fabric is a workout. This is one of those projects where I'm glad I know how to do it but I can't wait to get it over.

Whooo Hoooo - congratulations on that finish. TGTO indeed!

Well done! It looks great. Hopefully you will be spared any other math intensive projects for a while.
