I had a pair of Tripp pants that were oh so darling, but they were a bit too short for me. Since I prefer skirts anyway, I snipped the pants just above the crotch area, and took the zippers from the legs, along with fabric from the leg area and added it to the bottom of the skirt. This took forever to make because I didn't own a sewing machine at the time, so I had to do all the sewing by hand. I added vinyl rivet tape for added durability. The zippers along the bottom are functional, opening to a very large pocket area. The skirt is very heavy, making it my favorite skirt for taking walks, since no amount of wind will make it blow up. |
I love this!
