I mistakingly posted these two projects on the homemaking board. The first one is for a woman's skirt made from a t-shirt and the second one is for a little girl's dress.

I am currently making these dirndl skirts, found out they are really simple and I need more of them. What I like is that I can custom make them to fit ME! A plus is that I bought a handful of 7" zippers at a garage sale and now get to use them. You cut a rectangle 30" long (for me) x your waist size plus 12" in width, the waist band is 4" x your waist size plus 3" in width. Viola. The ones I am making are not so full, I also have the pleated pattern, may tackle that for the winter in a light wool.

My dd is taking home-ec this year. My mom is teaching her to sew and I'm teaching her to cook.
I will show her these patterns. She's supposed to be learning to sew clothes, which is her area of interest.
