DIY Skirt

As you may know Mama Specific Productions is all about DIY, and that spills over into my personal life as well. I LOVE making clothes, especially skirts. Because of my body shape I have a difficult time finding jeans that fit me well, so I prefer to wear skirts. I made this skirt out of jeans that fit me fine in the waist but were too tight in the leg/thigh/butt area. I love it!

The front panel is from an old jean dress I had. It got stained in the front with grape juice so I cut the stained part out. I'm using most of the cloth from the dress for this skirt, but the top part I'm turning into a tank top with beads on the fringe. I'll post that soon as I finish it. I will probably add a back panel to this skirt; I don't usually do a skirt with a split but I've been feeling sassy lately. I will also add some cowrie shells down the front.
