I found this black skirt in a bag of clothes my daughter was getting rid of. I like to sort through things
before I send them off because once in a while I will find something I can still make use of. This skirt
was made of a very nice black fabric and the embroidery on it was too beautiful to waste. I really wanted
to make use of this skirt somehow.
I decided to make a bag. I cut off the waist band and the hem. Used felt for the lining to give it some body.
I found a very pretty piece of dark red fabric for the lining and the straps that matched the embroidered
flower on the skirt. I cut the felt and the lining fabric to fit the bag and put it all together. It turned out very
nice. I gave it back to my daughter for her birthday. We both got a good laugh out of it.
My motto is never waste anything. I was in such a hurry to give it to her I forgot to take a picture of the
finished product.
