Default I made a umbrella !

I took a class on how to make a umbrella! It was a lot of fun! Used Cotton fabric, my sew machine and my serger that does not get used much. Does have some hand sew too. I sprayed it to Repel water. Just spray it yesterday, so I have not check yet to see if it works in the rain yet.
Below is the web site to get a pattern and frames. They have umbrella frames for doll, kids and adults

It a FUN project and it not that hard to make.

hit it with the hose and see or you could put another coat of the Repel on it and wait another day!

Oh my gosh! I love your umbrella. How exciting - I didn't know that one could make umbrellas. Another thing for my to-do list.
