http://www.inderlovesfolkart.com/2015/07/maggies-birthday-hanami.html
Thursday, July 23, 2015. Maggie turned three years old earlier this month, so of course I had to make her a special birthday dress, and of course it had to be pink! After all, when I asked Maggie what she wanted for her birthday, she had only one word, "PINK! Having recently made Maggie two Geranium. Dresses, I knew I wanted to do something different and a little more complex for her birthday dress. Birthday Hanamis. And Carolyn made one here. And an earlier birthday Hanami here.

Inder Loves Folk Art: Lisette Skirt: Butterick 6182.
http://www.inderlovesfolkart.com/2015/03/lisette-skirt-butterick-6182.html
Tuesday, March 31, 2015. Lisette Skirt: Butterick 6182. Today I have some selfish sewing to share with you. When Liesl announced the release of new Lisette patterns under Butterick, I really liked the looks of Butterick 6182. A boxy top and a-line skirt with a high waist and inverted pleat. I took advantage of the fact that Butterick patterns are steeply discounted at my local JoAnns, and nabbed it on a notions run. This skirt has a fun 1970s safari vibe, am I right? On the bright side: Stash busting!

Thursday, June 11, 2015. A Brumby Skirt and a Thrift Store Shirt. Yeah, so just a few weeks ago. Feeling very enlightened by Me-Made-May, I announced to y'all that "I make a lot of skirts. I haven't worn all of my me-made skirts yet. I could probably chill out on the skirts." Riiiiiiight. Famous last words! See, I love to wear skirts, and even more, I love to sew skirts. Skirts are fun, relatively easy and fast to sew, and don't require a full-bust-adjustment. Win win win! Or an exposed zipper! To sew th...
