I promise everyone had a great weekend. It'south still too cold hither to actually get outside and enjoy the season still, but that didn't cease me from working Jump into my sewing!

Last calendar week when I started re-packing my fabric, I set aside a pile that would make slap-up Jump/Summer outfits. In this pile I constitute the loveliest two yards of dark-green silk and instantly wanted to make something for myself for a change. Of course when I laid information technology out on the tabular array to get a better expect…It was full of holes!!! (Ain't that ever the way?!?)

I've explained earlier how most of my fabric stash came from a giant pile that was donated to my college and many of the pieces are cut or irregular in some way. Simply it was truly upsetting to come across what had happened to this silk.

However, I all the same had the want to find a use for information technology and salvaged enough (with some creative cutting) to make Tiny Tart a fluffy skirt.

 Afterward the skirt was sewn upwards I carefully checked information technology over for whatever fiddling nibble holes I may have missed and covered up a few teeny tiny ones with strategically placed flowers and a butterfly.

Unfortunately I wasn't paying much attention to size while I was sewing, and this skirt is non likely to fit Tiny until side by side year, or the year after. (She'southward kinda short!) The main thing though is that the poor piece of silk got the major face elevator it deserved. I wish I had more leftovers to add some ruffles, only C'est la vie. Possibly I can eeek out a pilus clip or headband.

Now I just have to decide if I should add a lace ruffle in between the layers. I'm on the fence almost that what do you think? Get out it as is? or add more lace? I'd love to hear any suggestions!
