Skirt to Hat
A couple of days ago, my sister, Charli, brought home a big box full of clothing that either didn’t fit her anymore, she didn’t like, or that was already mine and needed to give it back. In that box, I found this skirt that she wore, but it is now too big for her. I immediately knew that I needed it. I asked her if I could cut it up. She wanted to know why. I didn’t want to tell her because I knew she would want it. Well, I think you can guess the rest. I told her I wanted to make a hat, she told me how much she loves hats and that I can’t have the skirt unless I make it for her….yada, yada, yada. And that is where we are today. I finished the hat for her.Â
Here is the readers digest version. I will do a tutorial on how I made it once I get some pictures of her wearing it (my condition for making it for her.)
I took this skirt:
I love the way you think! I would have never looked at a skirt and thought it could be a hat. Way cute. Me next please!
Wow, way to think outside the box!! Your sister will love it, but for your sake I hope it’s too big!
It’s amazing! So creative! Thanks for stopping by my blog.

Super cute! Wish there was a tutorial about it!

Jonie that is SOOOOOO Cute good job!!
This. is. FABULOUS. I have had a big donation box sitting in my bedroom for several months now, because we just haven’t gotten around to driving it to the drop-off. I bet I’ve rifled through it half a dozen times in the past month to pull out this or that to cut up and make into something new! You did a really amazing job on this project!! Inspiring : )
That fabric is PERFECT for that hat, it’s beautiful.
Wow, you are so talented! I am uber impressed 🙂
Do you have a pattern for this because I want to make one! Super cute.
Amazing, can I give you a skirt? 😉
