I saw this adorable curtain valance at Wal-Mart on the clearance rack and since I knew we didn't have a window it would fit, I got it to see if I could make it into a cute skirt for Alathia.
I only made two straight cuts on the curtain. 
I sewed the two cut edges together. Easy as pie!
Next, I threaded a little piece of elastic through that I had measured around Ali's waist.
I sewed the elastic in by stretching the waist band out and sewing around it. Now it won't bunch up or twist!
Lastly, I took the two extra scrap pieces with flowers on them and made a little matching purse/bag from them. She loves her skirt and bag and looks so cute in it!
