I started making clothes for the first time about two years ago, when I was 13. It's not like I make all of my clothes myself. Not at all! Just sometimes (usually during vacations) make clothes. My latest project were some really lazy and baggy trousers. I made those the past Holidays. And last wednesday, there was a conference where there are a ton of stands where you can buy fabric, patterns, needles, and everying else you could ever need for crafting. I went there with my mom and grandma (who also love to sew and to diy. I obviously got it from them) and I went looking for some fabrics. I wanted to find 2 very colorful pieces of fabric to make a skirt and to make another one of those lazy and baggy trousers (but this time I wanted summer-y colors).
On the picture on top of the page you can see the pieces of fabric I bought. I know it's not that clear to see, but there are 2 pieces of fabric, not one haha, although they look alike. The one on the left, I want to use for the other pair of trousers. The one on the right I want to use to make a bright and happy floral skirt. So far, I have made just 4 pieces of clothing: a pair of trousers, a pair of jeans, a blouse and of course the baggy trousers I mentioned before. And since almost all of them (except the blouse) are more winter/autumn clothing, I wanted to make something cheerful. Well, if you ask me, these pieces of fabric are perfect! Don't you think?
The teeny tiny picture on the right is a model of what the skirt is going to look like. Very wavy and summer-y. I love the pattern and it is not that hard to make. Whenever I have the time (hopefully very soon) I am going to start with the trousers, since I can wear those earlier than this thin skirt haha.
Spring, here I come!
