"Never underestimate the power of a woman with a sewing machine!"
Well, while going through photos to blog some of the older sewing projects I discovered this little outfit that I had completely forgotten about. I made this set about ten years ago and gave it to our PTA to raffle at a Fall fund raiser.
The blouse was fashioned from a vintage cross stitched pillowcase. I added the gingham ribbon flowers and used a simple peasant top pattern. The hem of the pillowcase was machine scalloped.
The skirt is a tiered design that I made without a pattern. I just made gradually wider rectangles. I believe that I used bias binding on the hem.
I do love using vintage linens in my sewing creations! Do you?
Lovely.
