Cinderella Meets Frankenstein

I like to wear skirts as an everyday thing, but that means they have to be comfortable, and sturdy. I end up mending them a lot, Cinderella-style, visible stitches and all. And these two thrifted skirts were pretty sturdy, but I just didn't love the fit--too snug at the top tiers:So I cut them up and merged them into one--thus Cinderella Meets Frankenstein. I used all the left skirt, and half of the right...
(Yes, the lengths are a little different--don't mind that much. Yes, there are still visible Cinderella mends--don't mind those either.)

  4. Looks so comfy. The best part of sewing is having things that no one else does.
