I'm going to skite...

Well well well, will you look at that super cute skirt! It has cute ricrac, tui birds (which I love, but they do make a heck of a noise first thing in the morning) and pohutakawa flowers (aka the Kiwi Christmas tree). For anyone that knows me, you'll be aware that I hate sewing. Hate it! Sewing machines fall apart when I look at them, and when you are part way through a project and the machine dies on you, what do you do? Oh yes, that's right... fall to pieces, beg help and eventually finish the darn project by hand. This time I was determined that wouldn't happen so when the machine kicked the bucket I went so far as to read the instructions. As you can see I got it finished and then went on to make two more skirts because Megane loved this one so much that she wanted a new skirt too (and after that I figured I was on a roll so I might as well finish up and never sew again). Tomorrow I am wearing this skirt to work. Wednesday and Thursday I'll showcase my other new skirts - so check back for more cuteness updates :)

I'm still waiting for the other cute skirts...or did you decide to send them to me as a surprise present? You are so thoughtful!
