The Claudia Skirt Pattern

I have been trying to finish a couple things I started before Christmas. Here is one of the projects. I had made a red skirt  for my granddaughter and this blue and black skirt for her friend. I'm hoping they will send me pictures of them wearing it. This is skirt is made from the Claudia's skirt pattern design by Dawn Hansen from Olabelhe.com. http://www.olabelhe.com/shop/Claudia.html

a Surprise gift

I saw this Fabric and thought it would be just the fabric for a birthday gift for my sister. She loves polka dots and stripes in Red and white. It does have a valentine theme, but her house theme is red and white. I believe its the flower sugar prints from Lecien. I got it from  http://www.etsy.com.  The Idea came from the Feb /March issue of the Quilter Magazine page 76-78. http://www.thequiltermag.com/issues/current.shtml. I'll post the finish product later. Just thought I would you give you a glimpse of my new project. After all it suppose to be a birthday surprise!
