Okay! The lucky winner of Patty Young's Sewing Modkid Style book is number 76, Jana who said "There are so many project ideas in that book that will be perfect for my little girls. It would be so great to win : )". Congratulations Jana!! You're going to love this book!
And speaking of sewing knits....I made myself a knit maxi-ish skirt and it only took about 20 minutes all together! I saw this tutorial on Pinterest (follow me here) and it was so easy I can't wait to make more. I used the fabric I had left over from this dress. I totally cheated and simply serged the hem but I think it looks fine and it's so breezy and comfortable. This is such a grab-and-go kind of skirt I know I'm going to be making more before summer hits.
It's only Monday and I feel so accomplished already! Off to a good start here. And don't feel bad if you didn't win the book....just be sure to join in the coversation at these other wonderful blogs since the blog tour isn't over by a long shot.
