Sewing Seeds for Haiti (skirts)

I made three skirts the other night for the Sewing Seeds for Haiti project that Randi has going on her blog. I've been using Randi's blog a lot lately. She is the one that I got the reusable bag tutorial from and also the quilt a long I am following. No, Randi isn't paying me to plug for her blog, I just think you might like it too!

Here is what she says about the project: "My friends are Mennonite and so are the missionaries. They serve in a number of ways, but they do serve lunch to over 100 schoolchildren every single day (that was the number prior to the earthquake). Many of these kids are now without basic necessities. I am so excited that we are able to help in this small way of making skirts for the girls. "
Anyways, I made three skirts in half an hour and for less than $5! Using thrifted pillowcases made it super easy. I (loosely) followed these directions and made them according to Sam and Ray's sizes. My husband said that the blue one reminds him of a 1950's working woman and we both agreed that the red one is our favorite.
If you would like to put together a few skirts there is still time to send them to Randi. You can find more details here.
