Simplicity New Look pattern 6809, thrifted bedsheet for the fabric.

This is made from what I THOUGHT was a bedsheet, but when I got it home from the thriftshop I realized someone had already cut it (and hemmed it) into a huge circle. So, a circle skirt it became.

This is the skirt I made from a thrifted tablecloth that probably used to be a bedsheet.

Sewing for Halloween already! These are both made from the same very lovely thrifted sheet. The blouse is from Simplicity New Look 6809--somewhat longer than the pattern, because I took advantage of the other existing hem of the sheet. This is part of my costume... more soon. (After Halloween, I'll probably dye these a more wearable color, or colors.)

Made with a thrifted bedsheet, per Lisa C.'s instructions--part of Lisa's sheet swap!

This is made from a thrifted sheet, with the addition of little fabric flowers in pink, red, and cream hand-sewed along the edge of the hem. The rest of this sheet is in Lisa C.'s swap. Sorry, the other parts don't have this fun edge!

The turquoise, pink, and paisley sheet pieces here arrived in the mail from Lisa's swap--can't wait to make skirts from them. The large brown-beige sheet in the lower left is one I thrifted while waiting for the swap to finish--because Lisa's created a monster here. But that'll make an interesting skirt too, no?
