New Skirts

Thanks to Kimberlee's Girls Skirt Tutorial my two eldest have new skirts. However, due to the fact that I was feeling lazy, we made a couple of changes. First, we gathered the waist, instead of making pleats. Second, I did not measure the length or the width of the material and so the skirts are longer and narrower. Third, I only had double-fold bias tape on hand, so the waistbands are narrower. Both of my daughters were happy to wear their skirts to Mass yesterday. They are hoping to make two more skirts with my assistance in the near future.
Thank you, Kimberlee!

  2. Sewing is really easy. I taught myself how to sew when I was a child by watching my mom sew. She did answer any questions that I had.

    I meant to add photos to this post, but have yet to upload them. Hopefully, I can do so soon.
