Pinspiration

Oh Pinterest, what did I do before you were in my life?

I spent much more time on Facebook and had far fewer craft ideas to show for it, that's what.

I found this cute little number and had to try. I haven't learned to sew yet, but luckily my mother was coming to town (yes, again) for the weekend and was bringing her machine, so I persuaded her to give it a whirl. We loosely followed the tutorial found here and this was the end result:

Most comfortable thing I've ever worn? Quite possibly.

Pictured: Toys in living room, shadow (and corner) of table, crease down middle of skirt that the iron couldn't handle.
Not pictured: Crazy bedhead. You're very welcome.


Thanks Ma! You rock.
