Last night I made Cyndi a new skirt. It was super simple and fun to make. The real problem happened once we were at church. Cyndi was climbing and being all-round crazy today. Half way through Sacrament she had already snapped the thread in 4 ruffles. I took the skirt off to try and fix it or something, but I had no idea what was happening - so much thread. So I asked Linda to take a look at it. She went outside for a few minutes and when she came back, the skirt was somewhat back together. She had a needle in the car and threaded the threads back in to hold it. Well by the time we got home, I had to re-ruffle most of the skirt. When I ruffled it again, I added some extra re-enforcement, so I hope next time she wears it, it will last longer than a couple of hours.
The re-ruffled skirt.
I had removed the back pockets of the denim skirt that I got. I was planning and just moving them up, but once I had completed the ruffles and everything, it looked good without them. So I grabbed one of Cyndi's shirts and I added a pocket to it. Then I sewed some sequences around so that it would match the skirt.
