more sewing….

It seems i’ve just been on a sewing frenzie lately. I’ve really been enjoying it. I finally talked Trevor into letting me set up a table in his office (since it was the only available space) and use it for my sewing corner. Needless to say he agreed and I think he’s created a monster. I’ve been sewing like crazy. At the moment I’m working on 2 skirts for my nieces. All 3 girls (them and Glorianna) are going to have matching skirts for Christmas.

Heres a few pics of the ones i’ve recently finished.

The red velvet one isn’t really complete yet. I’m lookin for some white snowflakes to either sew or iron on. But the fabric stores tell me its still too early in the season for that kind of thing. (The skirt isn’t really that bright…the flash on the camera really brightened it up a lot).

I had fun with this one…I was trying to be a little different…

And Back

I took an old pair of Riah’s jeans that he had out grew and made this skirt.

Thanks to my Aunt deciding to clean out her closets, I got all of her scrap material that she no longer wanted. That coupled with some exta ribbon I had made this adorable skirt. (its not really that uneven at the bottom…honest…its that way its laying).

Some old blue jean material, a little lace and some iron on hearts.

Another old pair of Riah’s jeans…some ribbon, scrap material and some iron ons…Ta-Da!!

I’d say Glorianna has enough skirts to last her for the next couple of years. A lot of the “pant style” ones are still to big and way to long. So those are going to have to be saved till next summer or winter. But hey…I’m loving making these skirts. Who knows…..If i get good enough at it, i may just go into business.
