maxi skirt

Just a simple maxi skirt I made this week.  I've been wanting one for a while, and had the perfect amount of this fabric.  It would be better if it were made of a knit (this stuff has zero stretch), but I really liked the colors and the silky feel of this fabric.  Small slit up the back for ease of movement, and an elastic waist.  There will be more of these in my future.

Looks good! What kind of fabric is it? Basic woven cotton, or some kind of flowy rayon, or what?

I'm not exactly sure - it was in the clearance "as is" section of the fabric store, meaning they didn't get any information on the fabric when it was shipped from the supplier. I don't know a whole lot about fabrics, but it is silkier than cotton. Possibly a cotton/poly blend, perhaps with some rayon. Either way I like the skirt, and I have lots of different tops to go with it.
