So I officially started my garage saleing this last weekend, and I will start by showing you this skirt that I picked up for 25 cents!!
I thought it was a cute colour combination and didn't even hesitate about the size of it. I just bought it.
I did try it on, and the colours were just not me, but they were perfect for my daughter.
So I put it around my daughter and cut the extra fabric off.
Then I took the extra fabric and made sleeves with it.
I am skipping all the steps because you could probably figure it out it's so easy, rather than going through a boring sewing tutorial with me!
Here is the back:
And a few shots of the front:
I am glad I was able to make a dress for my daughter because she is growing out of everything and this was VERY THRIFTY!!
Also today my sisters and I made some ties for our boys for my brothers upcoming wedding. They were so easy I had to share them with you, and the link of where to find them to make your own:
(sister in law Meg, sister Chelsea, sister Angela, Me!)
And hey, I know I have been away lately, but I have been up to my ears in projects! I can't wait to show you!!

Such a fun dress! I love the way the sleeves are closer together in the back than in the front. That's probably the best 25 cents you've ever spent. :)
so very cute! I bet she loved it!
