Apparently it's never going to stop raining. Thank you hurricanes Irene and Katia. Especially Katia, for making the rain come in from the south, crazy looking sky up there. Since every happy holiday/weekend/hang out plan I've made the last few weeks has involved being outside, I decided to make some water/flood friendly clothes.Skirt number one, which is not that fantastic on the dress form, is based off of an old Athleta skirt. It was the same concept, with the twirling pieces, but the twirled seams had bungee cord in them to make it adjustable. Let's face it, I'm a little lazy, so I didn't do that part. However, it doesn't really need it! When I walk, this skirt flows so nicely!
I'm going to wear this hiking in a few days, wish me luck that the weathers clears and the paths have not all been washed away.
The next skirt is half way done, just needs a waist band!
