For a while slips were scarce and I couldn't find one anywhere but I know Walmart has them and I think Kmart too. I used to sew and loved it but have not done it in years.

I used to sew, and thought I would start again now that I am retired, but haven't quite got around to it yet. But your ideas inspire me to start thinking about it again at least! I don't wear many skirts anymore. Our "church" right now is a Home Bible Study in our home. My husband is a retired preacher, and when we started having his mother here on the weekends it was hard to go to church. Some of our neighbors/friends were also in between churches and so we started this home study...anyway, that being said, I usually wear slacks and a nice top for our service rather than a dress or skirt. And since I don't work or go anywhere fancy, my new jeans pretty well take care of all the rest! LOL!!!Pamela M.

You are very creative to even think of that, let alone to get it done! I used to sew a good bit, but don't really have a place to get my machine out and leave it.

Does anyone wear blouses anymore? I think they're in the same category with slips!! Have a great day.

If you do decide to make a purse from the remainder of the jeans I would love to see a picture. A lady in our church made the cutest bags for two of the little girls who attend there also. They are adorable.<br /><br />Oh...and yes, they do still make half slips. I've found them at Walmart. I was surprised the first time I found them there because it seems as very few women wear slips (half or otherwise) anymore. I wear a slip, even when the garment is lined. It was part of the way I was raised...a lady always wears the proper undergarments. :)Diannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15916346102440260126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3033320547792994210.post-21757194600566519592017-01-05T10:02:47.818-05:002017-01-05T10:02:47.818-05:00Cute!
