My dearest Myles has been studying his brains out for school and his CPA exam.
Myles is the type of student who will study all day because he is so dedicated and motivated! Which I completely appreciate.

This means that I have a lot of time to myself. Time that needs to be filled or else I'll go crazy.
I got a really nice sewing machine for graduation (thanks B&T) and I've used it twice... and both times were gifts for friends or family. I am excited to start using it more since I have the time. I was thinking, man, the only way I am going to be that cool mom/grandma that can sew stuff is if I start learning NOW.

I went and got some cute fabric as you can see beneath all my sewing accesories. I went to Sas Fabric in Tempe, they have great deals if you can find what you're looking for. I bought 4 yards of jersey cotton fabric for $7.00. Hello?
I decided to make a maxi skirt and thanks to Tatum because she told me about this great tutorial. Elleapparel.blogspot.com
Trust me I am no pro, so if I can sew this skirt ANYONE can sew it!
Excuse the bad lighting in the photo and the unfinished hem. This skirt is so easy. Only 4 pieces and it folds over like a yoga pant.
I love it and I am sad that I didn't make it sooner!
This skirt only cost about $3.50. A way better deal than buying the same thing for $20+.
Thanks to my Joanns Labor Day Weekend coupon I got some really cute fat quarters and Sas fabric has faux minky for really cheap. I am thinking I will start another quilt.
Yay!
