Renee brings out the best in me.

Yesterday I had a lot on my mind and I wasn't feeling well so I thought I would escape into my own world and sew.  Seeing Renee Saturday inspired me to drag out some bright fabric and sew Lil O and Baby M some skirts.  Renee told me about making them with elastic but since I was tooo lazy to leave the house yesterday to buy elastic so instead I made them drawstring. 

Here's the fabric ~ purple floral, a back to school funky print, a purple, teddy bears and Noah's Ark. 

Drawstring Skirt

My very first one.  This floral print was see through so I paired it with some white fabric underneath.

Lil O liked it:

Then I moved on to make one for Baby M.  After I made the bear skirt she hugged me and told me I was her best friend EVER!!!

Each girl has 5 skirts a piece.
