From Jeans to Skirt

I've been wanting to turn some old jeans into a skirt for awhile now... and after searching the web for a little while, I found these instructions. Whoot! And being on Bridgeport on Tuesday gave me the opportunity to visit Joann Fabrics and purchase some khaki twill.

 Step 1: Seam rip pants.
Step 2: Pin seams
Step 3: Sew new seams
Step 4: Measure and Cut inserts
Step 5: Sew inserts - front and back
Step 6: Try on!
You may have noticed that I didn't iron it. Yikes!
 Whoot! And I finally have my new skirt!

  1. Nice work! I've always wanted to try doing that, but I always thought I'd use jean in the center. Using khaki is an interesting and fun twist!
