Another skirt

  I found this fabric last fall at Joann’s and knew I had to get a couple of yards. I had no idea what I was going to do with it, since it is kind loud.  In my sewing frenzy this weekend I knew it had to become a skirt.  It is a knit, so it isn’t warm at all.  I think it will look cute with some crazy colored tights and some boots.

I’ve been really busy this weekend!

I made this black corduroy skirt from scraps I had in my stash.  I used one of my vintage zippers and added some elastic to the waist. I think it will be a cute, warm skirt for winter.

Straight pins and cheap champagne

I’m working on THE DRESS.  How do you like my straight pin box?  My daughter didn’t want it anymore and was going to throw it away.  If it is pink and sparkley, I am all over it.
