It sounds nuts, but I went from never wearing skirts (and always wanting to) to wearing one nearly every day! Hope this helps!!! :)Dbloh7chickkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00194365808750729951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276729182071116494.post-44958668609701149242013-07-13T14:17:38.442-07:002013-07-13T14:17:38.442-07:00I'd love to know how to make the bottom coral ...I'd love to know how to make the bottom coral colored one! :0) ~ Karen ~https://www.blogger.com/profile/14593256441576715331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276729182071116494.post-42118393399952025472012-08-22T16:11:56.643-07:002012-08-22T16:11:56.643-07:00Where do you get your fabric?Where do you get your fabric?Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06828784330300636750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276729182071116494.post-50266314750771464802012-07-14T08:26:14.503-07:002012-07-14T08:26:14.503-07:00I absolutely love some of these styles!

At least I think that's what it's called. Look it up - it might have a clearer picture.<br /><br />Whenever I'm trying to reconstruct a garment, I try to look at it in stages. First, look at the very basic shape - the skirt itself with a waistband. Then, look at the origami - like folds as add ons. when you abstract it into levels like that, it makes it much easier to proceed. If you would like to discuss it further, send me an email - i'd be happy to share some ideas with you, and maybe make it into a tutorial! I'd have to get my hands on just the right fabric though... hmmAmberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14164191761622825354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276729182071116494.post-62893949167640469002010-07-15T09:29:59.304-07:002010-07-15T09:29:59.304-07:00I love the first skirt too.

I have already thought of something creative to do with a couple skirts I already have! thank you so much!<br />Can I reply to Genia...? is that weird...? They make satin shorts for women, I think they were created for that very purpose, to keep the thighs from rubbing together, maybe in the 60s or something but they still make them today and satin runs smooth under anything...kind of like a slip only between the legs!:) You can usually get them at a walmart or maybe kmart or something, if not look at mileskimball.com and countrystore.com...I am not positive about the last one, whether that is the address or not but that is the name of the store. I wear them, also I am not the big either, thighs just rub sometimes. There are a few places you can get them online, you could probably even get them from JCPenney! they are very common. really.Amie Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762413854948424339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276729182071116494.post-36352148870425648672010-06-07T11:05:18.800-07:002010-06-07T11:05:18.800-07:00I would love to see what you come up with!I would love to see what you come up with!Sharlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05099482371598046745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276729182071116494.post-80885290212547400142010-06-07T06:07:57.890-07:002010-06-07T06:07:57.890-07:00I LOVE the first one...

These are ones you have already made?<br />I would join you but I haven't worn a skirt or even a dress in years! Thighs rubbing together doesn't feel nice. Not that heavy, it's always been that way. <br />I look forward to see more from you.Geniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07128599732286334592noreply@blogger.com
