Sarong its Right

So I am heading to a pool party this afternoon and I wanted something very light and fun to wear. I went online and found simple directions to make myself a fun sarong. 
The basic directions for the sarong are:
1. Use 2-3 yards of fabric (depending on your size) I used about 3 yards.
2. Wash and dry with out fabric softener.
3. Iron.
4. Hem all the way around all 4 sides.
5. Tie into sarong. (I like this website for directions to tie the sarong.  http://www.fairwindssarongs.com/howtotiesarong.html)
This is the fabric I choose. It is about 3 yards.

I folded the rough edges over the first time and ironed them flat.

Then folded it over again and ironed it flat.

Then sew the edges.

Another fashion show.

Look close at the top, the knot when fluffed right looks like a bow.

Such a quick and easy project to add some style to your wardrobe--and if you are really daring, pair with a light sweater and you have a cute dress to wear to work.
