skirts

I have been in the mood to sew lately.

For the barn dance at fall retreat, I sewed a skirt that turned out kind of cute.

(me and my best friend Noel)

I wanted it to spin, though, and it wasn't the right fabric.

So I tried again last night, just experimenting with this jersey-type fabric.

And got it!

People laugh when they come into my room and I have my sewing machine and an assortment of other stuff strewn across the floor. I am starting to really enjoy it, though.

And now, today, I feel all girly wearing it. There is something about a skirt that makes me feel pretty, even though I am wearing a t-shirt with it. And the fact that it twirls make it that much better.
