Toddler Skirt from my pajama pants

I was about to toss my pajama pants, when I realized they'd make an easy skirt for my little girl. 

I grabbed one of her other skirts, and traced that with an added 1/2 inch  seam allowance on each side making sure to use the elastic in the top of the pants to be the top of her skirt.  

I sewed it together, also keeping the tie for a bow later.

I then cut strips of material to make the ruffle.  I ran a baste stitch and then pulled them till they gathered.  I pinned and sewed that on. Then I hemmed it.

She looks adorable in it.  I'll definitely look at remnants differently for possible toddler clothes again.
