shopping!

bought fabric.

bought some lovely cerulean blue to make a cover up.  I wanted something with a pattern but... I'll just glitz up the edges with some decorative trim. 

and some stretch purple to try the trumpet skirt.  If it works - I'll splurge on some expensive fabric.

Decided against the burgundy  or the sheer beige (for more circle skirts)  Decided I don't need those. and while I love the burgundy colour... the fabric was - less than ideal for anything else I had in mind at the moment.

Also bought some purple wash in/wash out hair colour  - I know it is only temporary.  But I only need a temporary change. 

Finished the gold pants.  Also found more of the same gold fabric.  So If I wanted to I could make both the bra top AND a vest.  Still haven't found the front portion of my vest pattern????  may be winging that one too.

tack on to the sewing post.

I also went through some of my boxes of fabric (3 rubbermaids bins & 1 bankers box  believe it or not...)  and found way too much green cotton fabric.  I hate green - (got it for free)  so I'm planning to experiment and make a 10 yard - 3 tiered skirt.  If it works I may try it with fabric I actually paid for.   Don't know what I'll do with it after - sell it, give it away - who knows. As much as I'd like to play with one of those big gypsy skirts I'd never wear it - (I hate green, green hates me.)  But that's way down on the sewing list.

And my SIL needs me to shorten some curtains for her.  Better get cracking on my own stuff.
