I am already bad at this Blogging... I have not blogged on a regular basis. Boo on me. I am officially going to blog every Wednesday. That is blog day. I promise, that is until I forget! And then I will do it on the closest following day hehehe. Well I have been cooking up a storm, stitching (not as much as I should), and thrifting (don't tell the hubs).
Ok so I made my 1st piece of clothing it is this skirt! I am very proud of myself! It was not to difficult to figure out all that sewing lingo, and attaching the brown ruffly part well that sure was a task. I am about 99.99% sure i did it 100% percent wrong...EEk! Oh well it still looks pretty when I wear it:)
Sorry my pictures are not better, it is difficult to take pics of yourself when there are no mirrors to use, so I just laid it out the best i could. This is a New Look Easy pattern from Wally World the package looks way cuter, I think I should have used a thinner fabric.
I have also started a new quilt wait I take that back, I have started 2 new quilts, the one here which I actually have to take partially apart because I attached the bottom left two squares upside down, I got to excited to see it finished. I often make mistakes when I am excited about how GREAT it is looking. Then BOOM backtrack and not quite as excited anymore.
These are the patterns I have to use for the border. Aren't they so very pretty!? I love these colors together. This here quilt is going to Mr.Bentley my youngest nephew. I had originally intended on a previous quilt to be his but the colors were not right for him because he is such a bright and happy boy!
Also for the record book this is my hubs fav. quilt so far! (Gasp)
EEEeeeek does anyone see this UGLY yellow and green???? Yes it is bad I know but it is for a friend so we must ignore the icky colors. Us Texans have our own arguments about who's the bomb diggity the Aggies, Longhorns, Texas Tech... but we will always pick a Texas team so I feel like I am cheating on my home state. Please forgive me. Well I will have this buddy here finished if the FABRIC EVER GETS HERE. We had to order the fabric from two different places, and GASP the lovely postal service misplaced the first shipment. Hmmmmm
Well I hope you like what I have been up too. Leave me some words of wisdom below:)(:
