sew a skirt

A bag
A blanket
A tank top
A dress
A jacket
Shorts
Pajama pants

Etc.
I just need to buy the materials.
And I don’t want them to be plain and boring; I want them to look like something I would buy in the store. :)

I finally found a pair of boots that will look good with skirts so I have new incentive to complete this project! (My old hiking boots just weren’t going to cut it.)

I ordered the pattern and I’m waiting for it to arrive

I have a book, patterns and bought the material. now Ive just got to get round to making it.

I have the pattern and the fabric. The next step is to prewash the fabric.

Or get a new one. The one I have now is 40 or 50 years old, and was “injured” in a move. Since I don’t feel like sewing my skirt by hand, looks like I’ll be carting it to a repair shop for diagnosis.

Imagine how delightful to slip on a beautiful skirt you’ve cut and stitched yourself – especially if said skirt is constructed from previously worn clothing or some other recycled materials.

I began making clothes for my dolls when I was a little girl, and have been sewing ever since. I made baby clothes for my daughter, little sunsuits and matching bonnets, dresses for me, quilts that will be handed down to my grandchildren, all sorts of home decor items, and even a nifty cover for my stand mixer. It’s a great hobby, and one is thrilling in it’s process, and each time the created garment is worn or the item is used.

But I look in my closet and found the still unfinished skirt. I immediatly started working on it, although I had to study for exams. So I didn’t have the time to finish it. I will not give up though, I WILL accomplish this goal, and more importantly I want a nice skirt!

I made some progress, but it still is far from finished. May be I’ll work on it tonight, if not I’ll work on it this week. I want this skirt finished before spring starts!

I already started, but I need to finish my skirt. I’ll go for it next week during the Christmas holidays!
