Upcycled Slip Skirt turned Fox Tail Bustle Skirt

Available here:

NarWhale Print

Almost done!

Will show a photo when complete. But basically what we have here, is what once was a full slip, sliced and diced turned into a romper, I salvaged the lace from a different slip skirt I had, and the teal fabric used in the ruffles and for the trimming was the left overs from a previous full slip turned romper. So basically a Frankenstein of rompers.

Fini

Couple Pictures of the finished product, It took me a whole  lot longer than I had expected but that is ok I love the way it turned out! I am sure all the rest to come will not be as difficult as this one, this one I had limited of both fabrics.

New Design!

Just put this little diddy together this weekend. I have been really wanting to make day rompers, so before I jumped into that, I figured why not make a high waisted shorts jumper. While I was making them I thought how fun it would be to make the straps to the jumper detachable so you change the garment according to your mood or the weather! So here is a little Sneak Peek at the shorts, and the straps are coming later today!

New dress design and New Print

SO Lately I have been wanting to really spruce things up in my little shop, I want new happenings and to make it a little easier on myself, I have decided I want to make a few specific designs for the tshirt dresses and later on with the slips I will be building. So this way I can just take a few photos of the dress that fits me best and then on make them to order. This way I wont have to create something and struggle to get a good few photos in of every single garment I make. But here is the design of the Scout dress, I have it photographed here in 2 different colors and with 2 different prints. Including my newest print of a red fox, which will be able to be a silver fox or purple fox whatever your heart desires fox.

Sooo super fun project! I really need to start taking before pictures, I know I always say that but I mean it this time and next time I won't be saying that sentence at all!  So I was at the thrift shop the other day and saw these amazing coral pinkish colored curtains with white box pleated bottoms accented with olive green ribbons and thought "oh my..mine" and took them home and threw them on the sewing table knowing something great needed to happen right then. Instead I ate dinner with my sweet lovey man and went to sleep but the next morning I awoke to a beautiful vision and the vision was.... this romper!!! SO I took the take off of work :) it was kinda sorta raining so can't really blame me and I got to work on this beaut!

I made it a sweetheart top and added bust darts in the top and coming up from the waist line. I accented the top of the bust line with some of the pleated bottom curtain I had cut and used for the bottom of the bloomers.Also using the green ribbon used on the pleated bottom now at the top of bustline. To give it the real 50s feel I used the top edging of the curtain as the halter for the bodice .I made the high waisted bloomers from both bottoms of the set of curtains and added a zipper going up the left side making it an extremely accessible romper! All in all a super fun project took me a good little bit of time but I do think I can do it again and improve on things Heres the finished project!!
