Finally

This past weekend I was able to find some cherry printed fabric for my Lolita skirt.  Sadly I bought 3 yards & my pattern called for 3.5.  I'm going to layout the pattern & see if I can make it work.  If not, I'll have to use another pattern.  I still need to get some trim for the bottom hem and elastic for the waist (not in the mood to deal w/a zipper this time).  I hope to get this skirt & matching cutsew done in the next 2-3 weeks.

After many weeks of interruptions, I'm finally going to get those door blockers started & finished.  Everytime I'd plan to start, I'd either get scheduled to work a bunch of evening hours or get sick for 2 weeks.  Ugh, I will get them done this week.

I'm excited because my nightgown pattern is going on sale this weekend.  Simplicity is having a sale 5 for $5.  Woo-hoo!  I never pay full price for commercial patterns.  There's no need since they go on sale so often.  I also acquired a 10% off coupon for Joann's for this weekend.  It works for sale & non-sale items.  That makes me so happy!  I'm going to get my pattern & some light white cotton for my nightgown.  I'm really hoping to get something gauzy.  I'll probably get the details later (flowers, bows, ribbons).  I want to get started on this soon because the weather is starting to get very warm (blech!).
