Impatiently waiting...

While I am waiting for my serger to come I have tried to make things that don't really need it... until today, I just couldn't resist making a summer skirt! I haven't sewn with this kind of material before and it took some getting used to. I think I am going to shorten it a bit because it ended up pretty long, and I didn't finish off the elastic waist band because... I have lost 12 pounds in the last few months and I am planning on losing more, this way I can take in the seam on the sides a little and cinch up the elastic and it will last longer! hooray!


Yeah, looking at this picture it looks way too long...
This is what the pattern actually looks like... the camera had a hard time capturing it

No, sadly I don't have any announcements to make... I just saw this bib and LOVED it!! it was sooo easy to make, I plan on doing some more... maybe start up a stash of go-to baby shower gifts, not that I go to very many, but hey, it seems like a good excuse to me
