    Here is the original pinafore i got from supre 2 years ago that i found in my closet.

    Unpick the straps and buttons and pockets.

  3. 3

    Cut the top of the pinafore which will be the waist section so it is equal.

    on both sides of the skirt, cut slits that are the width of the straps.

  5. 5

    insert one strap in each hole on each side.

  6. 6

    pin on the inside making sure that the fabric on the two sides of the straps are exactly on the end of the strap.

  7. 7

    sew the straps to the fabric inside and overlock if possible. do not make a hole in the skirt ! After sewing on the straps, pin and sew the top of the pinafore so that the raw edges of the cut fabric are inside.

    Cut the pinafore shorter depending on what length you want it to be. keep in mind that you will need to hem it.

    pin and sew the hem

    You have a brand new (sort of) skirt.
    The straps can be tied into a bow in the front. wear the skirt with a tank top or t-shirt :)
