Project; little girl circle skirt and top - refashioned from bed sheet and Auntie's capris

Now this woman is 'repurposing' purposely. See her blog, Consumption Rebellion, for outline of how she re-used materials that went into making this outfit for her little girl.



excerpt from her blog - how to:

The skirt was constructed as follows:

- waistband - cut from my Great Aunt's pair of denim capris.
- circle skirt (and its really a circle this time!) - from fabric offcut at an op shop - cost $1
- lining - made from an old bedsheet found at an op shop - cost 50c.

- Top - cut from the leg of my Great Aunt's capris and turned upside down so the tapered end went towards the neck and the wider end towards the waist.

Project - little girl's adorable skirt from jeans, lace and whatever

I couldn't resist, had to post one more 'so sweet' little girl's refashioned new skirt.
Since I have a sweetheart little granddaughter who it still toddlerish, this would be an adorable skirt for me to make for her.

Hey Mom (Lica) - I think I need her sizes, or you need to send me a pair of old jeans in her size!

I wonder if this would also be a good project for Ems? Hey Bree, what do you think?
