A quick trip to Portland/Marysville last month was very productive. We managed to make some jewelry, sew a few things, and watch some Bollywood. I am not a sewer by trade, but I do manage to fix buttons and "franken" costumes together (with a bit of hot glue help). Keira was determined to make me a sewer, she was a bit more ambitious than I with her spring frock. Thanks to Debbie, she had this beautiful fabric lying around and I begrudgingly consented to sew a skirt. It was not hard, but I find that I may only like to sew when I have knowledgeable sisters leaning over my shoulder to decipher sewing instructions.

Sewing
After much heckling, I am posting a sewing project. Apparently, if you don't blog it, you didn't make it. I give you...the "Sister Skirt"!

You can come and sew at my house anytime!
I know a thing or two about sewing and am much closer :)
It looks great on you or rather on what little is left of you...
I love it! And I love those shoes too.
Can't wait for our future projects!
Now to find you a hot gray sweater... humm, I wonder where we could find one ;)
