Sewing!!

Sorry!! I haven't been blogging!! I've been caught up in making my Halloween costume!! I'm making a Revolutionary era dress- its a red and white stripe. I'm also getting to learn how to make a corset (send good thoughts my way!!). :)

If you look closely, you can see the dress I'm making int he pic I added- see the yellow dress?? I'm making that, but not the hat or shawl (maybe... we'll see how ambitious I get).
