50p sheet into an entire holiday outfit!
50p sheet into an entire holiday outfit!
Yep. Fifty pence in a charity shop, you literally can't go wrong.
I made this over the summer in preparation for our big family holiday, and remember I had to ask for help with gathering over at @sewing because it was being a nightmare and I am a noob. Worked out pretty well in the end, though! (Thank you Lemmy folks for the advice)
Lots of firsts with this skirt! Well, two firsts. I put pockets into a pattern that didn't have them, and also drafted a curved waistband so it would actually fit. Felt pretty pro after all that, I won't lie 😎
Patterns are the Cali Skirt and Ellie Bralette from https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/NHPATTERNS, and I was about to shoutout @wisbr for enabling me with that link in the first place, but she seems to have gone and now I'm sad 😢

Bonus pic for Lemmy folks since I cross-posted this from Mastodon and the silly thing only ever sends the first photo across:
The slits and the pockets!! 😍 love that dress! Great work turning that old sheet into something awesome.
Thank you! :)
I have the 50p I’m just missing the insane amount of skill and talent to do this.
@SatansMaggotyCumFart You're definitely overestimating the skill level needed for this, but I'll take it 😉 Thanks!
@thegiddystitcher @sewing @wisbr That came out so beautiful! I hope your family was suitably impressed!
@sbourne @sewing Hah, I think they were more confused about why anyone would make clothes when you can just shop for clothes instead 😅
This is super impressive. Good job!
@papalonian Thank you! 🥰
@thegiddystitcher @sewing @wisbr that looks lovely and you are amazing. Don't be sad *huggles* 🤗🕊
@skyfire101 @sewing Thank you! 🙂
@thegiddystitcher @sewing @wisbr Nice work!
@Archie8 @sewing Thank you!
I'm blown away. This is totally amazing. Well done!
@MrsDoyle Thank you! Not the sort of thing I'll get a ton of wear from at home, but then again it was only 50p 😆
