I've been busy sewing a small quilt with Downton Abbey squares, but only work for maybe an hour or two a week--on Saturdays or Sundays. I've been itching to put in some time sewing and your post adds to that desire. I hope to do some this spring break and summer.

You made me giggle. I try to use Swiss German expletives if I remember. That way, if the children repeat them in public, it is less likely to be noticed by the super mums, or by a teacher. I hope to sew a skirt this summer but probably won't participate in the sew along, ballet costumes need to be sewn for Annie's dance class first, and a birthday present for one James' and Alistair's school friends. Your skirt is just beautiful, I would wear any day (although I might only be able to squeeze one leg in!). Have a lovey weekend. xxChristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11883091348839145603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7270442039937122804.post-1787660256863325932014-04-04T21:57:55.297+01:002014-04-04T21:57:55.297+01:00I loved reading this post :) it has really tempted...I loved reading this post :) it has really tempted me to give the skirt a try.

I am joining in with the sew along, am waiting for my pattern and am going to make it in calico first because I am a total beginner in the making clothes department. I am excited but nervous too. Seeing lovely examples like yours is encouraging though. I hope to progress to a knee length denim version eventually...<br />Have a lovely weekend<br />Best wishes<br />EllieEllie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.com
