Hi everyone!
How has 2016 been treating you so far?
If you read my previous post, where I talked about my resolutions, you might remember that I mentioned wanting to go cruelty free. With this I decided that I wanted to make more of my own clothes! I always tell myself to sew more, but I never really get around to it. Over vacation however, I was able to make this really cute totoro pinafore-style skirt, so here are a couple of photos!

I put a little totoro applique at the bottom of the skirt~ It's very fluffy!
I also embroidered a little tree sprout at the top- it was my first attempt at embroidery like this, but I'm quite happy with how it turned out!
On the whole I'm really proud of how this pinafore turned out! I hand-made the pattern, and aside from the straps being a bit too long, I think it turned out pretty well!
Short post today, but I hope you liked it!
Thanks for reading!
Bye bye!~
Looks amazing! <333 I would love to see more of these cruelty-free self-made clothes! ^^

Thank you! ^.^ The totoro was actually one of the easier parts- I just drew it, traced the piece onto the back of some fuzzy fabric, cute it out, and drew some eyes on it xD
DeleteSuch a cute outfit!! xx
