Lace and Scallops


The baby could come any day now, so I made a list of everything I need to do. Then I threw that list out the window and finished a skirt I wanted to make!


So I am becoming slightly less lazy....
I actually did interfacing and lining for this little skirt!

Sadly, my huge pregnant belly will not allow me to wear it. I made it a size larger and three inches longer than the pattern stated so that if I needed to, I could take it in. Or it might just fit me perfectly after the baby is born!

This is the Macaron Skirt from the Collette Sewing Handbook. I love that book! Yes, I have a ways to go but I am getting better at sewing!!! 

I took a page out of Maria von Trapp and Scarlett O'Hara's books when making this skirt. It's made of curtains! Heck ya! I love the lace and the scallops. I've been in need of a good white skirt and I think this might do the trick.
  
I really should be deep cleaning my house or something, but I just want to sew! I won't be able to for awhile after the baby is born, probably, so I have to get it in now!
