Taking a break

I took a break from birthday crafts to make something for myself!
Check out my new skirt!

How else was I supposed to get a picture of myself?

Anyway, I started out with a pattern but after cutting out an almost complete semi-circle of fabric, I realized that the pattern I had was not at all the kind of skirt I wanted. Soooo, I got out a skirt I already had that I liked the length of and liked how it hung, laid it out on my new fabric, and cut around it, leaving room for the sewing edges. In that moment, I was feeling very brave!

It turned out great! I love it, I got lots of compliments on it, and I'm sure I'll be posting another skirt soon!
