Flickr user Crafty Intentions spent five months sewing this intricate, floor-length rainbow skirt, which features 10 tiers of 4″ x 4″ patchwork squares. It’s like Scarlett O’Hara meets Willy Wonka–in the best possible way, of course!

What an accomplishment! I love sewing and fabric and color and just a touch of quilting like in this project. How did you finish the top of the skirt?

I’d leave a comment on the original page where I found it, but I’m not a member of Craftster ):
I am in complete awe and in total love with this skirt. While I know I’d never be able to complete something like this, I am very much inspired to make one of my own. I love big, flowy skirts and I love rainbows, what I great combination >3<

I love this skirt and I’m thinking about making one too but going from white to light green to medium green. I saw this originally on craftster and loved it, don’t let them get you down!
Good Job!!

Like the comment above, I would have placed this comment on the Craftster page if I could.
Just to say that I can see three things wrong with this skirt so far as some of your family are probably concerned. 1) it’s not a pair of jeans. 2) it was not bought from a high-street chain store. 3) it states that you use your time to do things other than watch the TV.
Your friend clearly adores the skirt. I hope that your partner does too. I would say it was well worth the effort. Congratulations.

I think you did a beautiful job.
Just as when we were kids, most people say hurtful things because they are jealous, or they feel a lacking in their own life. You must feel sorry for these people because they will never be able to get out of their own way.
You, ma’am, are a mover! GREAT JOB on the skirt, it is a ray of sunshine!

I just love your skirt and if I could sew I would be making one right now! You could sell your skirt for quite a bit of money Im sure of it. If you sold one for a good amount of profit I bet the persons saying bad things about it would quit saying things. You should summit it to a craft magazine or craft contest. You could also make shorter versions. Anyway I loved it and can’t wait to see what you create next!

Hi I just want you to know that I saw your skirt for the first time on pinterest and I am inspired to try to make one for my self. I think that I will reverse the dark colors with the light since I am rather heavy and I would like to hide my stomach. Thank you for the inspiration.
