Another sweater skirt! I started off with this beautiful gold sparkly sweater from the thrift store. I bet it would fit incredibly well with the shoulder pads and all.
I cut off the sleeves and neckline, and pinned the sleeve area into a more skirty shape.
Then, I folded the top over and sewed it about 1.5 inches down to make a waistband.
Then, I found this old valence in my fabric stash and made a waist ribbon out of it. (Sidenote: I didn’t buy this to use as a valence. I bought it because the fabric was just so gorgeous.
I cut some holes for the ribbon to go through the skirt waist.
I need to figure out a different way to take pictures of myself. It took me maybe 6 times to take this picture and it is still sort of sucky. Maybe a roommate?
Bokeh! Hey new camera! (Nikon Coolpix, amazing.)
Sparkle is the best part about the holidays.
