well it looks like something

I found this fabric on clearance at Joann's and had visions of it being a great skirt! Only problem? I've never made anything in my life before! The fabric was sheer, so on top of making a skirt, I had to figure out to sew in a lining too.

With the help of...Freshly Picked I was able to figure it out.

Now for the finished product's debut...

{sorry for no head...no one would want to see what's going on with my face and hair!}




What do you think?

  4. Wow that looks so great! I have so much fabric laying around that I bought on a whim, and I've been itching to make them into skirts and was too scared, but you've inspired me to give it a try!

  5. That looks great!!! Very nice job - I love the fabric choice!

    I was thinking since there is no clothing shopping during the 30 for 30 I should do some fabric shopping and clothing making!
