Hello Readers. I love wearing all one color. You could call it dressing like a crayon or you could call it monochromatic dressing... Either way, I do it when I can. This olive colored skirt and top seemed like a good combo to me.

The Bandana Dress
Hello Readers. I wanted to make a dress from bandanas, just for fun. I saw one made by @_diydaisy on Instagram. I thought this would be a super easy sewing project. (Spoiler- It was not.) I had no pattern and was just running wild with no plan. That is usually how I operate in life and it usually works out, so please join me on this little sewing adventure.
I needed a pile of bandanas. (I used 9 bandanas but I could have use 1 or 2 less as you will see later.) The more bandanas I used, the poofier and fuller the skirt would be.

Crop A Button-down
Hello Readers. I wanted to make a loose cropped shirt that tied in the front. I found this striped shirt at a clothes swap and it seemed perfect for this project. I went right to work.

Pillow From a Shirt
Hello Readers. Fall is here and that means I want some fall decor around the house. Sometimes clothing actually makes great decor. I think this shirt would make a great fall pillow for a chair. Let me show you what I mean.
