First post!
Welcome to the blog.
I will be presenting the results of my recycling creations here.
So... first up: the Brolly-Skirt, modelled by moi...
This was made from an umbrella I found in a bin on the street, the wire frame was a broken, but the fabric was in perfect condition.
- I removed the fabric from the frame and unpicked all the seams from the centre until it could fit around my waist.
- Next I used a part of t-shirt to make the waistband, using the bottom seam of the t-shirt on the outside. (I embroidered the flower design on the waistband before I attached it)
-The basic structure of the skirt finished I just sewed on beads for decoration on the hem and made a flower, which I attached the the umbrella's velcro strap.
It was quite simple to make, but the fabric was very slippery.
