♥ ♥ I updated this with a simpler version and it's perfect for all the special holiday events coming up. ♥ ♥
Supplies: Recycled shirt. Anything that is stretchy: think textures, laces, crochets...etc.
elastic waistband.
The perfect lace pencil skirt all from a thrifted shirt...and comfortable.
Before: this tshirt was outdated and needed a revamp. I loved the pattern of the lace and decided it would be a great pencil skirt.
Cut the sleeves and collar line.
Sew a tube that fits your waist and hip measurements snuggly. Trim the excess from the seams.
Top stitch along the edge. Trim an excess fabric.
Add a bow...



gorgeous!

Pencil skirts look fab on you, I remember the last skirt you made out of a shirt, it was awesome too. This one is different but also so cool, I love the waist you made with that bow.
