I got the black floral stretch fabric from the "co-op" that Gabe, Gavin, Gwen did today. Love the fabric, absolutely beautiful!
So tonight I decided I would make myself a skirt and top out of some of the fabric. I decided to take a skirt that I knew fit me and make the pattern off of that (what I normally do since the big 3 just don't fit me right). I went to pull out a skirt I bought last weekend that I adored. Bring it to the kitchen and realize they are the exact same fabric! *snort*
SO saved myself a step...just need to make a shirt to match now! ;)
And I only paid $1 for the skirt at a yard sale so the entire outfit won't cost me much at all. ;) Now to figure out exactly how to make the shirt that I have in my mind. :) (Kind of boat neck maybe, 1/2 sleeves slightly flared at the bottom, slightly flared bottom of shirt...we shall see. ;) )
