Good Things Come to Those Who Wait


One of middle's (age 7) favourite colour combos right now is black and white. So for Christmas I decided to make her a skirt using black and white fabric that I had in my stash. The problem was, I wasn't liking any of the combinations (I needed three different fabrics for this particular skirt). In the end I decided to use two black and white prints (both with some sort of circle pattern) and plain old white as the third, thinking I would come up with "something to do on the white fabric that would fit later.

Well, we finally came up with that "something": button embroidered flowers! It's simple and fits in with the circle theme. We are doing two on each of the white fabric panels. Only one more flower to go, then the hem and it will be all done!


Sometimes you just have to wait for the right idea to come along to finish something:) Cyndy Pin It

Just brilliant - sewing skills and a little patience for just the right moment and you have a beautiful skirt. Looking forward to seeing 'it all'...
