I'm not sure there's anything that brings on nostalgia quicker than the sounds and smells of your childhood! It hits me every time I pull out the serger... for some reason the sewing machine doesn't quite smell the same way!
I've been working on this project for awhile - too long - and since Kyrie wanted to be able to wear it for her school Christmas program, I figured I'd better get moving on it!
This pair of Jeans caught her eye while were were "back to school shopping" - I thought they were cute but I don't think there's anything modest about "skinny jeans" on a 7 yr old so I bought them with the plans to make them into a skirt! Found just the perfect Corduroy at Joann's Fabrics and an idea was born!
Here's pictures of most of the process. Kyrie & I were both happy with the finished product! =)

Darling!
you mentioned birthday, surely mine is on your calendar ;)
Love the skirt btw!
This is darling! I like the back, usually they are a big V pointing to the behind. ;)
I have a pile of really nice pants and jeans that I can't get rid of, but want to figure out what to do with them (since I started wearing all skirts and dresses). I may have to try this. I'll practice for a couple before trying mine. ;)
