Selfteached sewer without any particular talent for it. French girl expatriate in Germany, I sew wenn my two girly monsters let me. So, not really often. I’m a convinced thrifter and refashioner, and totally into paleo. Oh, and I work as a part-time marketing assistant.

Skirt refashion

I had this jeans I LOVED... I've worn them a lot the last 5, or maybe 6 years. So often that last week, sh*t happened: a hole in the upper leg... But I love these trousers so much I decided to refashion them into a skirt! There are enough tutorials on internet: I mixed them and... Tadaaa:


 Here it is, my new jeans skirt!! I must say it looks pretty good (like buyed, my husband said), and it was not difficult at all! Do you know I never owned a jeans skirt in my all life? Now I do.


How did I do it? I opened the legs with my seam ripper, cut the legs 5 cm longer than needed. I used the legs hangover the fill the gaps on the front and the back. I sewed an apple over the newly made hole, and used a waved stitching for the bottom hem... et voilà!
