So I decided to make JOE another girly skirt since I liked the way the other one turned out but it was too short to wear for long.
As a Nigerian gal, my mom has always bought me Nigerian clothes whenever she went back to visit. I kept them because I figured perhaps I'd wear them one day. Well, so far, I haven't had a chance to so instead of throwing them out, I decided to put them to good use by using them to make outfits for JOE.
Here is the skirt I cut last week but never got a chance to finish sewing. For reference, I used this pattern.

| I know the top doesn't really go but it was laundry day :-). |
Expertise needed: Beginner
Total Approximate time: 90-minutes. Since I have done this before, it was relatively easy to make it again.
Total spent on sewing materials: $1.50 for the elastic used on the waist. The material was free since I already had it at home.
Feedback: I love this skirt. I think it'll be a staple for me. She can wear it with tights when it gets colder.
On Sunday, J & I visited a model home. I loved the decor in the half bathroom so I am going to try to recreate this in our half bath. I plan on adding shelves above the toilet though instead of putting things on the toilet tank.
