Sodine I made from the bottom of an old skirt that I was given that needed an update. I had to add ease to hips and I also added a jean style pocket, I plan to upload a how too but the pictures I took didn’t work so I have to make another one then I will upload a how too. I also put in a picture of the half the skirt after I deconstructed it but before I cut the pattern.
old skirt a kinda tye-dye corduroy that was already cut on a bias, A brown micro fiber for waistband and pocket tops, brown wooden button, polyester blue lining, Blue zipper and thread.
My grandma who gave me the skirt and the fabric I used to line it, Nikishell for the inspiration to try recycling old clothes into something new.
Burdastyle for the competition and the pattern.

The fabric tells the story! You really jazzed up a very simple pattern. Looks really funky with the fishnet stockings… :-)
