Two-fer

Bought this brand new women's skirt from the oppy ($6.00).
And refashioned it into 2 girl's skirts for little P.
(Note: top picture is the original skirt, this photo above
is the refashioned skirt). Not much work involved in this one.
Just a matter of removing the waist band,
sewing in the casing, and then adding the elastic to fit.
This one is made from the cotton lining, with spotlight cotton print and vintage binding. have a head cold, and thought I might as well do something productive, head cold seems to have precluded me from doing the dishes, but not from sewing, weird huh?

Hi Claire, You are still a clever oppie girl. I've never stopped lurking in your blog and now that I've quit my job I will have more time to devote to blogging.
