Sheet Chic

There have been plenty of sewing projects swirling around my brain, and which I will eventually share when they have moved from the realm of my imagination to the tangible. In the midst of doing cutting and prep for what will be a more time consuming and challenging sewing project, I found myself with enough of the fabric left over for something else.

This pink and white striped sheet was full of holes but the fabric was far too perfect for some candy striped garments to get rid of.

I decided to reuse the sewing pattern I used for the lily skirt, because I liked the fit and the pockets, and it's a quick, easy project. I'm really satisfied by the kind of project you can start and finish within a day if you put enough time into it, which is why I have such a vast collection of knit and crocheted hats.

Using a bit of a coordinating pink fabric from a thrift store sheet for the waistband, I made a new skirt!
