    Talking One skirt down!

    Hi Everyone! I just finished the first skirt of four. This one is a summer skirt and I can wear it now. I like how it came out. Had to adjust and readjust the pattern. I really like the fabric. So this piece was $1.99 for the pattern (which I can reuse) and the fabric cost me $2.25 ($1.50 per yard on sale). A total of $4.24...Not bad!

    Oh yes, I was examining the bedroom with my magnifiying glass.....not! LOL I just wanted to say how nice it is to see my fellow villagers. I've seen a photo of you before but it makes you feel closer when I see a photo. Thanks.
