This originally started out as a pair of jeans, an old favorite skirt and 4 fat quarters I never used. The skirt has been hanging in the closet of a dress dummy that was my size back in 1981 before kids, husband and age. The hem had come down and I was going to fix it “one day.” And never got to it, and now the skirt no longer fit.

There are three shots because I couldn’t fit the result all into one frame. The shots are a close up of the front, a close up of the back and a side view taken in the full length mirror in my daughter’s room. Optimally, finding found someone to take pictures of me in the skirt – twirling – for full effect.
