"Sewing"

: In quotes because I lack a compulsive attention to detail. I will never sell my work, nor give it to you as a present. But I will use some old fabric and a sewing machine and make a dress for Daisy that goes "all the way down to the floor."

I kind of fumbled my way through putting that zipper in, and the skirt is actually way too long. There's some gathered fabric that got caught up in my stitches.  It works, though - it's dress-up!

My other project was placemats. It was so fun to go to the fabric store and choose these colors! 

No major disasters here, but my sewing machine did kind of stall out in the middle of making some coordinating napkins. I also have a table runner on the docket. I guess I need to bring the machine into a shop or something. Not sure when that will happen, but until then, my seamstress-y adventures are on hold.
