Mom and I

There is not a day that goes by that i don't THINK about sewing. Whether it's looking up new patterns, the latest notions, reading a sewing or embroidery magazine.....I could go on and on.
However, today  I'm spending the afternoon sitting outside with my mommy.  Enjoying the weather , watching cars go by , looking at the people as they walk up and down the street.  It's been a long journey but I'm grateful that she is here (some days more than others)lol. She has and is still an example of grace and poise. Now that  the shoe is on the other foot and  mom lives her golden years I will be right here to did what she helped me to do .......LIVE!!

African print skirt

I made this skirt for my daughter. I used Simpicity 1365 skirt pattern, but I made a few changes. I lengthened the waist to make it a high waisted skirt.  It took a little work to cut pattern out so that the motif in the fabric matched.
