Several years ago now, I came across a skirt online... It was made of layers and layers of denim jeans, and I fell in love.
Somewhere, I made a bookmark, I saved a photo. I started collecting every pair of jeans I wore through, hoping one day I could make one for myself.
One day, and after a quick nip to a charity shop to buy some extras, I had enough pairs. But, I'd lost my original link.
Hours and hours of searching later, I found it. One Of A Kind Skirts.
I had an image in my head again, and I set to work.
I pinned and repinned. Tacked and retacked. I broke a sewing machine and
was given a new one. I blunted a needle and broke a needle, and bought
new ones. I unpicked stitches and sewed bits up again.
And finally, I handsewed my clothing label, "Creatively Chaotic" down a seam. The finishing touch.
With huge thanks to my husband for some wonderful photos :)
