As I type this (at a ridiculously early hour, thanks to my precious son who hates sleep and is too young to be called a jerk about it) the wind is howling, there is a fresh covering of snow, and freezing rain is turning the whole thing into a bumpy skating rink.
I want to remind the universe that we had better weather in January. To which the universe replies, 'That's because you were on Vancouver Island. If you wanted nice warm weather you should of stayed there. But, noooo, you wanted to be among family and friends. You're back in Alberta now, girlie, so suck snow."
The universe definitely seems harsher here.
I have to get my sunshine in other ways.
Looking forward to making more twirly goodness for when the weather finally relents. And also looking forward to a nap when the boy finally relents.
oooo, my 9 year old and I just love her pinks sneaks with the skirt, nice style! sewing lessons today! we are inspired! thanks!
ReplyDeleteFantastic skirt. It has a 50's flare to it ... but not too much. Adorable.
ReplyDeleteAwww...your daughter is adorable. Watching her twirl make me happy!
ReplyDeleteI love the skirt. My 3 yo dd is excited since she has the same shoes Smootch does!!
ReplyDeleteWow the island to Alberta?! That is almost as bad as Kelowna (BC) to Ontario. But I have a love affair with the Island. If it makes you feel better they are getting snow and cold temps too!
ReplyDeleteSweet! I love Smooch's fashion sense, and I'll try to send you some of our excess So Cal sun.
ReplyDeleteI too am ready for some warmer weather sewing... we deserve a nice looooonnng summer. Love the twirl of that skirt!
ReplyDeleteI just love the suiting fabrics you use. I wish I had an eye for them like you do, it's just an absolutely adorable skirt, as usual. And the pink chucks are the perfect touch.
ReplyDeleteWe also have those shoes. :) Do you use a serger? Or is the stitch on the ruffle one that any old sewing machine can do? I've been zigzagging my way through a few dresses now that I wanted that same kind of look on, but am now scared to wash them for fear that they are going to fringe horribly!
ReplyDeleteLove. That. Skirt.
ReplyDeleteThe skirt is adorable, love the twirl! I can't imagine still having snow! But I live in the south & we never get any. So, I'm sharing this Sunshine award from my blog to you! Hope it warms you up! :)
