Mushroom Garden Three tiered skirt Plus size Goddess size On sale

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 16:07:20 -0500

$40.00
Marked down from 55 to 40!

This skirt is made with 100% cotton fabric. This has a bright green background with orange and red mushrooms on it.I have a closeup pic of the fabric in the pictures I listed here too

This was made with an elastic and drawstring waist. The elastic makes it easy to take on and off, and also helps keep it snug against your belly without cutting into you. This can be tied in the front or in the back to make a bustle. Just scoot the fabric up close to the ties to make it poofy.

All seams are straight stitched, zig zagged, and topstitched. This is machine washable and dryable as is all of my clothing.

Measurements:

Waist 100+ inches

Hips : mega free size 100+ inches

Length: 37 1/2 inches (can be hemmed shorter just message me and I can do this for ya)

Spin: Hard to measure but I am positive its well over 200 inches. This is one spinny skirt!

I am a size 20 with 42 inch waist and 48 hips. This makes a nice bustle on me and would make a bigger bustle on someone smaller. I am confident in saying this will fit ANYONE! It can be hemmed as short as you need it to be and if it needed to be longer I can let it out some as I made a pretty deep hem on it, I can get at least another inch in length out of it just message me if you would need this done and I can hook you up!

Thanks so much for helping out this work at home mama!

Batik Plus size Kimono Top Wrap top

Sat, 14 Nov 2009 01:08:01 -0500

$45.00
Cool geode slice necklace from http://www.Mommacatscloset.etsy.com

This fabric grabbed me and would NOT let me leave the store without it...can you believe that! The nerve of some fabric! So I brought it home and cut it up into this beautiful Kimono style wrap top.

This top is made from a cotton batik in purples and reds. It has a buttonhole opening in the left side to slip the tie thru to wrap around you to tie it closed. The fla that lays over the bottom flap has a tie as well and the ties are long enough you can wrap them like I have here in the pictures or you can cut them off if you like and tie it up a different way with less length on the tie. Its up to you!

MEASUREMENTS:

Bust...this top is impossible to measure because it is an adjustable wrap top. I will tell you all I can here. The back panel is 28 inches wide, and the front panels were made to make the total circumference of this top about 52 inches. My bust is 46 and there is definitely room in here, it could also go smaller as well. I am gonna go out on a limb and say that anyone with a bust size of 42 up to 52 could fit it and be comfortable. It may fit bigger, I am not sure and I wont say for sure it will till I can get someone with a bigger chest to try it on for me. I designed it to cover up to 52 inches though.

Length is 30 inches. Thats easy LOL

For reference my bust is 46 my height is 5 ft 3...I think. And my hips are now 48 and my waist is finally back down to 42! Its a miracle! I lost some inches, go me! I of course, am the one modeling this gorgeous top.

If you have ANY questions feel free to convo me. I am super convo friendly and love to talk/type ask anyone who knows me LOL

Thanks so much for helping a work at home mama!

Art Collage Skirt Wearable Art Plus Size with Bustle in the back Textile art

Sat, 26 Sep 2009 20:16:25 -0400

$60.00
I have marked this skirt WAAAY down from what I initially wanted because I want it to have a loving home. This is my pride and joy, my artwork, my masterpiece and I want someone to be able to enjoy it. It is marked down to 60$ from 130$

This skirt has been a long time coming. I have logged about 12 hours total on this one, and it was FUN! I enjoyed every minute I worked on this. The skirt more or less created itself, I started with an idea of sewing a bunch of "stuff" to a skirt panel just to see what would happen. Well as I kept going it grew into the beautiful work of art you see here. I sewed on a number of items including, but not exclusively, Yarn,fabric (some with intent to fray some not), ribbon of all kinds, Tulle,Buttons,Fancy sequined trims, Fancy bridal pearl beaded trims, Trims of all shapes and sizes, ric rac, ect....

I used a variety of threads in this too I used some metallic silver, Metallic holographic, Blue embroidery thread, green embroidery thread...ect... It is a textile paradise. I used as many things in my sewing stash as I could. Anything that fit the color theme of blue and green and was handy got sewed on LOL

I have chronicled the creation of this skirt from start to finish on my blog you can find its story here:
http://aurorasgardenblog.blogspot.com/search/label/collage%20skirt
There are also random bits of other stuff in the blog posts as well but mostly it is about this skirt. There are 5 posts total so far.

Ok here is the nuts and bolts of the skirt:

56 inch waist with a drawstring that closes in the back to create a bustle effect. The bustle isnt real noticable from the pictures where I modeled it but it would be more noticeable on a smaller lady.

This skirt is 36 inches long from top to the bottom of the emerald green ruffle.

This would fit any size up to a 24 comfortably. But check your measurements to be sure!

For reference I am 5 ft 3 and have 48 inch hips, 42 waist I normally wear a size 20/22 in pants.
