My grandmas old fabric

My grandma used to sew a lot (she also painted and did a lot of different DIY stuff) but her eyesight isn't so good anymore. She can hardly see what she is doing while knitting. So we got to take over all her fabric bits and scraps and while going through some of them with my mom I found a really sweet blue piece that I turned into a skirt yesterday.
It was just enough for the skirt length, but for the waistband I used some elastic tube fabric
Today I thought it would be nice to have some pockets and I found this layout here and it's so cute I had to do it. The leftover scraps where just enough to make these :)
I had to sew four of them to get two okay-looking ones
And because the weather is so nice and warm we went for a walk in the forest nearby where I forced my boyfriend to take some pictures ;)
This was one of my favourite playgrounds as a child
