skirt

so in between homework and real work this weekend, i made my first skirt!  i wore it to our friends' (boh & lori nichols) wedding!  haha.  no one noticed that i made it, so that means that it at least looks normal.  haha!





the exciting part is that it didn't even cost me a dime!  i had the fabric from a couple of years back and my mamaw had given me some matching thread a couple of weeks ago!  wooo!

now back to a BUSY BUSY week of class.  so maybe next weekend, i'll make something more exciting!

    brit... i'm not good enough to be paid... come on over and we can sew it together.

    amy- it was like a super thick cotton... not exactly sure what it's called. i had a lot of trouble with the hem... extremely hard. and i added about 5 inches to what she says to start with (i think 23 is what she recommends). and my legs are super huge and i don't have a whole lot of room to walk...so i need to cut a slit. so when cutting i would also recommend not going in inches.... maybe only 2 instead... but your legs are a lot skinnier than mine. :)
