Well Ravelympics are well underway....I am on a good pace (I think) and will show you tomorrow where I'm at! Yesterday I wore my new skirt to church!!! No one commented on it, but I enjoyed wearing it and liked how it looked! The hand sewing on the inside wasn't too bad! I definitely will make this again...maybe the other style. So now I am keeping my eye out for cute skirt fabric!
If you need/want more details on the skirt let me know and I will try my best! I had a couple of sewing projects for my Secret Prayer Sock Swap package and I got those done (except for a hand sewn detail on one of them) It felt good to sew again, but it feels good to have the machine put back up again. My kitchen table was a mess!
Last week I also won another contest! Aunt Kathy has been doing a contest a week (for quite a while) and last week I won the knitting gadget jackpot! Look at all these goodies! Go say hi to her (and in the process you will enter yourself in the contest for a really cute needle holder made in sheep fabric)
Well today I'm working on my shawl....and doing some math...only 2 weeks of summer left....must enjoy every minute! Have a super day! :)
Lovely skirt. I bet if people knew you made it they'd be impressed. Your much more reserved than I am. I walk into the building and say, "Hi, like my skirt... I made it!". I agree about sewing making a mess. My knitting never makes me feel like I need to put away but when I am sewing the whole downstairs suffers. :)
ReplyDeleteGo Team!
It is pretty indeed.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your win!
It looks great! Hopefully one day I can have a permanent place to have my sewing machine set up. I'd sew more if it wasn't a pain to drag the sewing machine out. :)
ReplyDeleteI like it, I like it! good job! (I know you'll like the one I'm sending.)
ReplyDeleteLove you! Mom
Leah the skirt looks great, of course the model looks better if you ask me. Nice job.

Cute skirt!!! I need to get sewing again. I have a few projects in mind but they are waiting until I finish my Ravolympics projects.
ReplyDeleteI do love the skirt - great job! And, I can't wait to see your Ravelympics project. I'm hoping to post mine tonight....
