hopefully something rhetorical

I got up early this morning to work, but I thought that I would show what we did yesterday first.

Yesterday, my bgf and I decided to go to the fabric store and look at the garment fabrics.  Usually, we just head straight for the quilting stuff, but yesterday we thought we would try to branch out.  We got some very plain knit wear to try to make a skirt, or two as it turned out.  I had a skirt pattern in mind, so we headed home.

I won’t say that our results were perfect, but I think they came out prety cute.  I say “they” because due to some mismeasurement on our parts, I think, we ended up making two.  The first one was way to big for my bgf.  She is about ten million sizes smaller than I am, no really, and the first skirt fit me!  So, I got one too!

Pictures of hers are below.  Notice the cute little ruffle that I wish I could take credit for, but completely can’t because it was a total accident.  In this case, a good total accident, but accident nonetheless.

But, they are both even for the most part, and they hang well, so I think that we did a good job!  By the way, fold-over-elastics make waistbands a snap!  We are going to try a real elastic waistband with our next creation for her.
