Since I'm a beginning sewer and trying to teach myself, I made a rule that I can only sew from fabric I already own or dirt-cheap fabric. Since I make a lot of mistakes, there is just no point in spending a lot of money on fabric. And I am actually finding it to be a pretty fun challenge to come up with inexpensive or reused fabrics.
Here are two skirts I sewed for Sylvie to practice waistbands and pleats.
Skirt #1 is made of a piece of an Ikea curtain that had been sitting around unused.
Skirt #2 is made from a Target dishtowel purchased for $2.99.
