Homemade Clothes.

I painted the bottom of this skirt ... I used a stencil from the Lotta Prints book. I am going to try out a few more stencils before I try to create my own image. The fabric of this skirt is linen with a elastic waist ... my intention was to attempt a zipper but that is still too intimidating.


Homemade clothes have captured my attention. I picked up these patterns this morning at JoAnns ... they are marked down to $1.99 for a few more days.



I also want to try clothes for kids and babies. I ordered this sewing book from Japan ... For Kids Who Have Started to Walk. I can't read Japanese ... but I think I can follow the photos. I check the mail for it everyday.
