A Three Dollar Skirt

A couple of weeks ago I found a very pretty ladies corduroy skirt at the Goodwill for 3-dollars; as I looked at the skirt I was wishing it would fit Elizabeth.
Then an idea struck me...I should re-make the skirt to fit Elizabeth!So, I ripped out the seams and chose 3 of the 4 tiers for the new skirt.
After cutting down the top tier I added new elastic and then gathered the remaining two tiers.
I love how long and full the skirt turned out.
I like how the skirt turned out so much I am anxious to find and re-make another one.

    Neat, but how come you didn't want it for yourself?

    I was thinking the same thing as Helen! It did turn out adorable for Elizabeth, though.
