Crafty stuff.
I haven't mentioned it here at all, but I'm in the process of...not a diet, more a lifestyle change. I'm not eating empty carbs or sugar as much as possible, and trying to exercise more. So far, I've lost nine pounds, and about an inch and a half on my waist. So...anyway, that has put me in an awkward wardrobe position as we head into spring/summer. If I continue to lose weight and inches, anything I buy now will be useless come August. The capris I bought a month ago are too big for me now, but they have a drawstring at the waist, so I'm making do.
Which gave me an idea. I'm not going to buy my spring/summer wardrobe, I'm going to make it! I have, like most sewers, an embarrassingly large fabric stash. I'm going to make myself two or three fun summer skirts with a drawstring waist, a couple more tops that will be adjustable to some degree, and that will form tha base for my spring/summer wardrobe. Cheap, adjustable, and hopefully fun!
