Giddy

This weekend, I was introduced to this free skirt pattern by Oliver + S. It's super simple, so I gave it a whirl. I made it even easier by edging with bias tape instead of ribbon.









It was so easy and fun that I decided to make another one. Since I had already done it once, this one was even easier!





Then I saw the Flickr group of others who had made this skirt and noticed that some people appliqued a T-shirt to match the skirt. I decide to do the same.





I love sewing and I am absolutely giddy over these skirts! Ah, the simple things!

  3. seriously -- i am not very talented. i am a beginner and this is really easy stuff. every time i go to the sewing store i ask them a question that makes them smirk. yesterday i almost bought the wrong bobbins for my machine and had to ask for clarification on the bonding paper for the applique. they exchange glances with one another and try to hold back on the laughter.

    tish, yes, my baby IS growing up. sniff, sniff.
