I make a skirt!!! Here is the proof. It was really easy! The instructions for making this skirt are located at this blog. I did the whole thing within a couple of hours. For the more experienced ones out there, you could do it much faster. Here is a list of firsts for me during this adventure...
1. First Skirt
2. First zipper (invisible)
3. First bow
4. First hem
5. First wearable item
I had so much fun doing this and I cant wait to start my next project! I also learned a ton while doing this because it forced me to explore options with my machine. One thing I did not learn is how to zig-zag the edges....I tried and failed. I think I am going to need someone to show me . I will work on it though! I also added the visible stitching on the skirt to add a little something something and I LOVE IT!!! Enjoy admiring my hard work!!
The final product!
The zipper. Not great, but not bad for a first time with instructions from the Internet!
This is me wearing the skirt!! This is before I made the bow, but I was just too excited to try it on!
s and the Mavs were kicking trash in the Playoffs! Everywhere we went the game was sure to be on and it was such a glorious time. In June of 2006 I moved to Utah, which happened to be during the Final games between the Heat and the Mavs. The Mavs were doing pretty awesome, but as soon as I left Texas, they lost to the Heat. It was a sad day, and I have forever disliked the Heat. Another year my dislike turned to the Golden State Warriors who knocked out the Mavs during the first round, even though the Mavs were seated first. And of course those Lakers...I am one of the few (being sarcastic) people who do not like the Lakers. I could not be happier to have the Lakers out of the Playoffs, let alone that the MAVS got them out!! This is just a tribute to my team. I can honestly say that I am not a fairwheather fan, and I stick by those Mavs through good and bad (even when they got rid of Nash--who is my favorite player). Good luck Mavs!!
