Any time you needed to DIY something, like, before the next hour or day? Tell about it here!

I myself made a skirt out of two t-shirts and safety pins when I ran out of jeans and had school the next day. I still need to add a drawstring, and then I can post it on here. :)

I improvised a bustle skirt with a long gypsy skirt and a bunch of safety pins when I had a Victorian-inspired photoshoot the next morning.

Was having trouble getting a dress to fit so I whipped up a dress form from items I had around the house. It turned out great and so did the dress! :)

Last night, I sewed up a pant leg. Then I still had one more to do. SO I woke up at like 1 am and pulled out the sewing machine. But I decided not to because it may make too much noise.

I was making hearts for my friends that had the fun patterns and colors that fit their styles and were initialed for valentines day. I finished at midnight or 11:30... those were good but this one that I made right before I hopped onto the bus looked like it was ran over. The sewing machine kept jamming because it was a cheap, soft, wide knit, T-shit fabric and it was all demented my friend was like "ooh.. um thanks." but she was looking at the back she laughed when she heard the story and liked the front.
