Poodle skirt

Last week my neighbor, Karen, came over and asked me if I could make her a poodle skirt for a 50's day school activity. I hesitently accepted. This was a first for me. I have sewn quilts, but the idea of sewing clothes terrified me. I told her I would try but I couldn't guarantee anything. I cut it out and got it put together in a day! I was proud of the outcome even though it wasn't perfect. She was excited and even got asked to dance during the assembly.
