Our first project was a triangular bag. I felt quite proud of myself! If you didn't look too closely at the seams, you'd almost never guess it was self made. Next sewing extravaganza came from an old dress up skirt my sister and I found while cleaning out my parent's attic. While I would never (and I repeat, never!) wear it as is these days, I knew it was worth a repurpose.
It was fairly simple since the size and shape of the fabric was just about right. I had to bunch up one end to event out the two sides I sewed together, but that also gave it a little more volume. It's an infinity scarf that you don't double, but the fullness of it matches that of a double-upper! Here's the before and after Instagram shot:
This, too, has me inspired to take on more sewing projects. Up next? Curtains for the second bedroom/den.
