EDIT: Actionish shot of shorts on page 3!

Shorts made from 2 vintage plaid pillowcases....and burdastyle shorts pattern which I edited for a higher waist and shorter shorts. I made fabric covered buttons, yay. The pockets are both fully functional.

Front:


Back:


I wish I had matched up the plaid nicer, but I was trying to just use the pillowcases...(I want to use the sheets for dresses and such.)

High waisted skirt, made out a really expensive piece of 70's art fabric, probably a collectable but oh well. It kinda looks better in real life when you can see the pattern all around.


Random jersey dress:
Front:

Back:


hmm the back straps look a little wonky on my dressform for some reason, oh well. They don't in real life.

Hope you like!
