This is what happens when you are determined to have a new skirt! A few weeks ago, I entered my local fabric store and instantly fell in love with this fabric! Can you blame me?
I do not have any skirts with a double flounce so I decided to make one. The joys of sewing your own wardrobe.
It did not take long to make. One and a half yards of fabric and 2 hours later, I had a new skirt.
In order to make this skirt. I drafted a pencil skirt. After fitting the pencil skirt, the remaiing fabric was cut into lare strips. The strips were sewn together and then gathered on one side. I decided to wrap the fabric on top of the skirt and sew the strips on top.
I wore this skirt to church and there was a lot of stares. :-)
My eldest daughter and I had amazing time at church.
Books
I read every book from the Bane Chronicles. They are pretty quick reads. It's entertaining to read the course of events in Magnus Banes point of view.
This week, I have started reading "The Jewel" by Amy Ewing. It really reminds me of the “Divergent” series by Veronica Roth.
This book is the first book of the “ The Lone City” trilogy. The story line is placed in a world where the Royal family needs surrogates. This book is a page turner. You guys should really check it out.
