Had these pants that I didn't want. You know the pants that you think you love when you buy them, but then you never wear them? They just don't seem to look quite right? Well this pair is one of those. They sit there
un-used,...and then there is guilt.
(Hate the guilt.) So I thought it was time to
experiment.
I unpicked the seem right up the middle, and used the lower legs as inserts to create a
skirt.
Then I OF COURSE used one of my favorite things (felt) to make lots of
embellishments. I used 'Liquid Stitch" to glue them all down and then tacked them here and there with thread j
ust to be on the safe side.
Now I have a skirt that I will actually wear. (
YAY!! bye bye guilt!!:)) And....it was a surprisingly fun project.

Of course you did. You are a clever girl, you!
ReplyDeleteHolly, Holly, I want a skirt like that too! Now I will look through my old pants and see if I can be as skillful with some of them as you have been here.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the never ending inspiration!;))
It's a fabulous transformation, I love the skirt with the flowers.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking about doing this to one of Samie's pair of pants that she put a hole in the knee in, now you've inspired me to actually do it!
ReplyDeleteVery cute!
SOOOO CUTE!! You can't wash felt...so now what?
