Creativity alert

I am a bit behind on my blogging but I will just keep plugging away at it... before my life went into complete and utter chaos, I was able to spend a day doing something I love--sewing. I had a blast! I was finishing up projects and starting new ones, organizing my sewing area and brainstorming all kinds of new projects I wanted to do. So, I thought I would share my results of the day:

Project #1: finished up a skirt I had started months ago! Remember the super cute belt from my birthday post? Yep, here it is! I was inspired by the anthro outfit so I made up my own cheap version :)


Project #2: Shorten a skirt and make a new one out of the left overs


Now let me explain myself...This is not a mini skirt for me :) Its a little skirt for my nieces. Like I said, I had a skirt that was completely too long and I always tripped when I wore it, so why not shorten it and use the leftovers?? So I did. just a bit of elastic and there you have it! 

Project #3: try out some super cool features on my sewing machine producing a fancy ribbon also for my nieces :)


It will most likely be awhile before I do any sewing so Im glad I was able to do these few projects. But don't worry, you have seen the last of my projects!! :)
