sew fun wednesdays...three

week three of sew fun wednesdays and i really am having soooo much fun.

this week i worked on another project for the little miss.

she's had this pair of jeans that are super cute, but a little to tight

in the booty and thighs, so she hasn't been able to wear them lately.

well, the other day i was checking out some new blogs and ran across this one.

she had done a post about this and so i thought it would be a perfect

project for week three. i tried following her directions on how to complete

this, but it didn't work out to well for me, so i decided to wing it with

the help of my sewing instructor and this is what we came up with...

what you need: pair of jeans, scissors, sewing machine,

seam ripper, decorative trim and thread

first: cut the jeans to desired length and use

the seam ripper to open up the inner thigh and crotch seam.

next: cut two pieces of fabric from the left over

pant leg and place in the open seams folding

the crotch seam over onto the opposite leg (front and back)

then: pin on decorative trim to the bottom of skirt

finally: sew on trim

viola! you have now have a new/reused skirt for your little miss.
