    I want to learn how to make dungaree skirt

    Not enough hours in the day... 8 months ago

    My pile of “scrap” clothing is building up far quicker than I can reinvent the articles. So far all I’ve actually completed are 2 huge t-shirts converted into smaller summer tanks, and a Steve Slaton jersey made into a WVU swim suit.

    The dungaree dress is finished, although I’ve taken to wearing it more as a skirt. Either way is fine, considering how little I wore the dungarees before I decided to mangle them up. Now that skirt is all I want to wear! :D

    I’ve put the skirts on hold for now, until I have a better idea of the direction I want to take with them.

    There’s a dress I’ve chopped up and mangled somewhat that is is dire need of some TLC and a shirt that needs taking in a little. Also, some dungarees that I’m turning into a dress.

    Seamstress Annie shall be busy in the coming weeks.



    Dyed frozen 12 months ago

    A couple of things have changed colour. One I had bought specifically to dye and the other got a nice bit of tinting, both now being shades I am far more likely to wear (neither item had seen to light of day for at least year until today).

    Next, the multitude of skirts I keep on buying even though I almost never wear skirts are getting hacked up and stitched to form something new and entirely more me.

    One day, I’ll do something with that…
    I hate to be wasteful so I’m going to recycle as much as I can, starting with various clothing that I’m sure I could modify, update etc. In fact I know I could, that’s why I’ve hung on to them for so long.
