I am feeling so happy that I finally finished something...other than laundry!! I found this pair of shorts and thought I would make a skirt for Andrea. I cut the shorts off about 2 inches below the zipper
And what do you know.. it actually turned out!! I covered the seam with a 3/4 inch ribbon topped with a 3/8 inch ribbon.
Made a wild looking bow to match...
And here is the whole outfit! It was a lot of fun and now I'll do it again! I can find shorts or pants at thrift stores for a little bit of nothing. The material only cost me about $3 and the ribbon was about 25 cents! Nolw I just need a picture of her in it...maybe I'll get one when we go to St Louis for chemo on Friday!

See? Sewing IS fun!!! :-) Very, very cute! I have a pair of pant that I've been intending to make into a skirt for Ju - but I can't find the right shade of pink check...maybe if I looked? :)
LOVE it! The colors are awesome, and what a great idea!! The bow is just too cute - makes me want a little girl just to make cutesy things like that...
so, so cute!
Now THAT is adorable...What a beautiful job you did! I'm loving the bow, too! :)
