I am so excited to share this with you today. This was actually made a few years ago for one of my daughters and now my oldest granddaughter can wear it. Poodle skirts are so much fun.
This skirt is a bit big for her, but there was no time for adjusting as we were swamped with taking care of damage done by a sewer line clog. I did lose 10 yards of cotton lycra, as it was on my storage room floor, because I had been using it. When I get my sewing room organized, after repair work, I will have a table just for cutting. It did hit my sewing room, so, right now
Back to the poodle skirt. I used Simplicity 8774, which I think is out of print, but Simplicity 5401 is very similar. It would be fun to add a cute top to this and a jacket, specifically a pink bomber jacket with Pink Ladies written on the back. Yes, I am a Grease fan. But, I did not have time. Fabric used, it seems like it was a felt. It feels like that.
I hope you are having a fun time getting ready for Halloween. What are you or your children or grandchildren dressing up as? I love to read comments, and try to reply fast.
