I made a skirt! Well-- altered one. A few months ago I got this brown linen mini skirt at Old Navy on clearance for $2.00. I liked the skirt, but it was too short. I got it anyway with the idea I could find a way to lengthen it.
Last summer I got these wicked vintage mushroom print curtains from a free pile. Most of the curtains are hanging in my living room, but there were a remaining few oddball ruffly one. I took an extra long ruffle and sewed it to the bottom of the skirt. After I added double sided bias tape to the hem of the curtain (the basting stitch was falling off). The tape adds a nice stiffness to the frill and over all I really love it. It's a nice, light skirt!
