recycling--loving it!


so i took a pair of blue jean cut offs, added patches, patches, patches, and an exposed zipper replaced the broken one. wow....i love this skirt! the cut offs, zipper and all the patches have been 'up-cycled'. as you can see there are some fun fabric pieces on this skirt. the waist band (hangs on hips a bit) measures 34"...hip line, 40"...front length, 18"...the back to hemline is 40", it flares a bit for a rustic, feminine look. it has gone through the washer and dryer twice to get the real 'frayed' look of the patches.
i had a lot of fun making this skirt....you might remember the pants i made for my best friend? this was a snap...no legs to deal with!
have a great friday!!
