    THE skirt!

    twinfaye, I found the skirt!!.. I guess I HAD finished embroidering it after all. I just never cut the pieces out and sewed it together. Any way you look at it, it will never fit me. Do you sew on the sewing machine? And if so, Do you still want it and how do I get it to you? There aren't any sewing instructions with it but it should be no problem if you do any sewing at all. It is just a matter of cutting on the lines, sewing up a few seams , hem it up and make a tie belt for it and it is done! I can hardly let it go ..it's so beautiful! I think it is the only crewel embroidery I ever did. The original picture that was in the package was still there. Attachment 2692 This is a picture of what I embroidered on the skirt and it is all done using crewel embroidery floss. What do I do next?
    Your friend, redhead.

    No offense TwinFaye but if I had done all that work I think I might cut it out and frame it and make a picture out of it. It sure is pretty.

    Be careful girl!...I may just keep it! I may just make a quilt out of it! OOOOOOHHHHHH! what an idea! I can't hardly talk myself into giving it away, just yet! Sorry Twinfaye! Please don't be mad at me. I have to think on this a while. If I do give it away you will get first chance on it. Love ya, redhead.
