So back a few weeks ago (Week 42 to be exact!) I began with this muumuu sent from Dyan...
Loved the little top that was made out of it, but I had all this material leftover...
Today, I'm going to tackle the rest of this lovely floral material!
I'm going down the wrap skirt road today! I used some of the extra grosgrain ribbon that was leftover from my Tommy Hilfiger copycat day and pinned it to the edges of 2/3 of the piece. (The other 1/3 that wasn't used is on one end...this is the part that will be wrapped under and hidden.)
I stitched down my ribbon...
...and with the 1/3 that I didn't add ribbon to, I wrapped and tacked it down inside the skirt with a button (feel free to use safety pins, velcro) and then made a lovely bow with the hanging ribbon!
Because this fabric made me think of a living room, I went matchy, matchy today!! Olive and powder blue to bring it all together!
If only the containers that our salads came in were evening blue...
