Happy!

So, I bought this fabric last night after one of my co-workers and I started bouncing ideas off of each other. It is a cute reproduction, and I felt the need for a simple skirt. Then we looked at each other and just both kind of exclaimed "pockets!" Here is my new skirt, complete with a pocket! And embroidery.



Here you can get a better look at the fabric and embroidery:



It's an adaption of one of the patterns from the Sassy Skirts book by Carol Taylor Oates. I took the simple elastic waste skirt and shortened it. Here's a slightly better picture of the fabric - it's a bit washed out in my photo.

I ran some errands today, and just happened to end up at Michael's. And, they just happened to have conversation hearts. And I couldn't resist the picture. There's so many pink ones because that is the only flavor I won't eat, and I'd already eaten a third of them, so that's what was left. :)



I hope everyone enjoys this beautiful weather! Something about this warmth makes me incredibly happy......
