Well today my sister got in on the
action. She’s wearing my “I Love Lucy” gingham skirt. I had a few yards of
gingham left from another sewing project and I decided to make another entry
for the July's challenge for the Monthly Stitch. I decided to make a skirt since I was already sewing a few other
skirts. This is a self-drafted skirt with a split in the front. Since the skirt
is super simple I decided to add a little fun with the pockets. I made these
half circles and added white piping and a red button. Like I said it was super quick
n’ easy skirt that you can make in under 90 minutes. She is wearing pair of DIY pumps that I made for a gingham outfit, during the “Rippin Ain’t Easy “sewing competition.
When I finished sewing this gingham all I could think was Lucille Ball……Waaaaaahhhhh!

ReplyDeleteThanks Lorali , I am glad I could make you smile!
DeleteThanks everyone! I got some likes although I think I got fired from any further modeling gigs- plus the pay wasn't great..just joking- always a good time with the family and when pictures involved it's too comical. Thanks for featuring me ;0}

ReplyDeleteThanks so much Carrie [I totally forgot to tell the bloggers I visited that I was there by way of Two Uses Tuesday!] I am enjoying making and sharing, although now with the blog I'm making so much more than I did before. My husband is not too happy about that.
DeleteLove it! The red gingham looks great; the pockets are such a cute touch.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Gingham seems to be the in thing right now.
DeleteSo wonderful! The skirt is so cute ... and the shoes! Wow ... the shoes are fantastic! Excellent job ... thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThanks Debbie, those shoes are stealing the limelight. The funny thing is I made those for a competition and I didn't know how well they would be rec'd so all the fan-fair is sooo amazing to me.
DeleteOh my gosh how fun are you guys! I'm a HUGE Lucy fan and your sister's face in that last pic...is awesome! :) BUT seriously, you DIY'd those shoes??? They're fabulous, way to go!
ReplyDeleteThanks Megan, I love that last picture and I told my sister, you know this is sooo going on my blog, when she did it. Oh and those shoes are the talk of the town.
DeleteThis is sooo funny, your sister is a hoot and the skirt in reminiscent of that era.
ReplyDeleteThis was a fun shoot!
