New to me...

A couple of weeks ago I bought a sewing machine cabinet at a junk shop in Illinois for $45.  Today I bought a wicker chair that was on Craig's List for $10.  I had to drive to Asbury, Iowa to pick it up.  While in the Dubuque area I did some shopping as well.  Also,  Deb found this folding metal chair at St. Vinny's in Monroe for $5.  Everything needs to be painted.

A new skirt

I made this skirt today for a woman in Madison.  I really like the blue cotton.  It is easy to cut and sew.  It has a nice texture.   I think it is a size 7 women's.

2 Skirts and 2 pillowcases

This fabric is called, "Crafty Cloe."  It is so soft.  I love the texture.  I bought a few yards of it when I lived in Twin Falls.  There is only a little of it left. 

Four skirts

I made four little skirts yesterday to send to a friend for her daughter.  The green skirt and the owl print skirt are corduroy.  The pink and zebra stripes is denim and cotton.  The ice cream print is cotton.  I bought a little shirt that I will send along, too.  It was $1.24.  Great price.
