Atomic swing skirt

When I'm not working on my costume projects or any fun sewing I'm doing what I like to call my everyday sewing. That includes making clothes that I wear everyday, fixing hems or anything else for family members and sewing for costumers.

So since I started on my stays I have had a few things thrown at me to work on. Two of my uncles brought over their pants for me to fix the hems. I actually have to take up two pairs for one uncle. My Grandmother want me to shorten her leather coat. and I got orders for skirts in. With all that I have to put costume sewing on hold to get all that out the way. Maybe working at the end of the day for an hour or so.

One of my favorite things I made was this fun Atomic Swing skirt. I just love this print I have used it for an apron for my sister before and I wanted to get more. When I got more of this fabric I knew it would make a great skirt or dress.

I was right



Now when I started on this skirt I was in perfect health, then  my sister came home with the flu and I had to take care of her. After  taking care of her for a few days I went back to work on this skirt but I could feel my body fighting me. I was getting sick and I just didn't want to do anything. But I pushed my self to work a little bit everyday till I finished this baby. I wanted to also work on my stays in between but that wasn't going to happen. I didn't even want to look at them, they will have to wait a few days.

So Uncle A's pants done, skirt done, and now I have to do Uncle M's pants.

SKIRT IS AVAILABLE ON MY ETSY
