Call me Princess Cupcakerella

I am an elementary teacher but I am an artist at heart. I love to create using all sorts of media.....papier mache, plaster, clay, fabric, sewing, cakes, and furniture are just a few of my crafts. More importantly I am thrifty and green, which is just fancy talk for cheap!!! I love to use what I have, create something new from something old, or create my own media using cheaper ingredients. I enjoy watching children create art as much as I enjoy making it....I now hope you enjoy viewing it!

Sewing Retro Skirts!

I found a great pattern to make some simple A-line skirts that hang nicely on my waist and fall just below my knee....my EXACT specifications! They are super easy to make, having 2 panels in the front and 2 in the back. There are some options, too, for pockets, zippers, snaps, and hem lengths.
Back panel. Cut 2.

Front panel. Cut 2.


I love splashy fabric.....













Sorry...lighting sucks.
Owls and baking print. Owls have snaps and the blue skirt has a front zipper.

Snaps

Both have darts to fit in the front and back.

Front zipper.
