Ridiculous sewing project

[cupcake_goth]

This is something I've been thinking about for a few years, and I've finally decided to try it. I had the Madwoman in the Attic make a version of these "pants" in black lawn. I'm going to sew layers of black organza ruffle trim (the good stuff with fishing line in the hem to make the ruffles nigh-uncrushable) up to the knees on each leg. If my theory is right, then I will have a pair of long bloomers that are also a petticoat! 

I will, of course, report back on how this works.

Ooo good luck! I hope it works the way you want it too.

Sometimes I worry that my insistence on, for example, thematic cosmetics and jewelry for specific events/happenings (e.g., having color-coordinated outfits for volunteering or my team makeup schemes for hockey games) is outlandish.

Then you post something like this and I feel much more normal. ;)

That project makes the baby jeebus drink gin from the cat's water bowl. I look forward to hearing more about it.

That is so you. You must post pics, young lady.
