Nap Time Project

When I was working at Walmart a lady came through my line with these cute skirts that were on clearance for $1.00. I bought 3 of them - 1 tan, 1 dark brown, and 1 black. I brought them home and much to my disappointment they were about 1" too short! So I put them in the back of the closet and would occasionally pull one out, get really irritated, then put it back (I don't really have an explanation for why I even kept them).

So anways, I pulled it down this skirt down this morning and was, once again, annoyed that it was just a little bit too short - and I have to say just a little bit boring and plain! Well, NO MORE! I decided to just do something about it or get rid of them.

I went to the fabric store with not much of a plan and found this really cute fabric with chickens that seemed oddly appropriate for me. The best part was that it was on a 50% off sale. So I bought 1 yard of fabric and some matching thread (note that now I am in $1 for the skirt and $3.50 for the fabric and thread).
I came home, looked up how to add a ruffle the bottom of a skirt, and . . . . . .

TaDa!
Sorry the picture is blurry but that is what you get when you have to take a picture in a mirror :/ I have lots of fabric left over so I am going to make a tie belt thing but I didn't have any interface at the house and the kids are asleep!
PM - I am thinking about an animal print for the bottom of the black one and maybe a white eyelet type fabric on the bottom of the dark brown one - or maybe a light weight denim . . .
