thrifty finds: black & blue

I have a huge bag full of fabric I bought a while ago at the thrift store. I was going through it and found a couple of pieces that had seemed like a good fit for a garment. A skirt in particular. I had an idea of how I wanted it to look. Now I don't really follow patterns, so I planned out and measured the pieces. I was working from just plain square material. Not a dress that I just altered, so this was gonna be a bit harder and longer to do. It probably took me a couple hours, with a little break. Anyways this is how it turned out:

 I think it's kinda hard to see in this pic, but I pleated the front of the skirt.

 For the back, I ruched the back of it.

The fabric I used was 100% polyester for the blue and jersey knit for the black.
