Bonus Makeover: Ruffles Galore

This was the fabric chosen by my latest Easter basket customer.

 I did five rows of ruffles- I just couldn't stop!

I initially planned to use a solid pink for the very bottom, but I found a pretty polka dot that worked even better.  It blends perfectly!

Apparently this is turning out to be "basket week" here on the blog.  I have another one tomorrow, but it ISN'T for Easter and it IS a different shape.

Makeover Monday 2/7

Since opening sosovintage, I'm very selective about the non-vintage sheets I purchase for sosorosey upcycled projects. I just don't have room for them! When I saw this ultra-soft cotton violet-orchid gingham, though, I knew I had to buy it. A good purple is hard to find!

With spring {hopefully} right around the corner, I decided it was time to brush up on my tutu bowl making skills. I'll be Easter basket making before you know it, and the ruffles are the most important part! I love how full this one's "skirt" came out. Look for her in sosorosey soon!

Happy Monday! Are you Americans dragging after last night's big football game? How about that cute little beaver commercial? I was so happy when today dawned bright and sunny; I'm hoping for a full week of school and the chance to complete lots of projects that are in the final phases. Come back tomorrow for a sneak peek of new vintage fabrics coming to sosovintage soon. And on Wednesday I'll unveil the finished rag rug and have a little contest, too. Here's hoping you have a wonderful week. Especially you, Donna- I'll be thinking about you tomorrow!
