I took today off because it's dreadfully slow at work for me right now... and I can always use a day at home to myself! I pulled out my sewing machine and made myself a simple circle skirt using some obnoxiously loud material I got for just such a purpose. The fabric is some kind of slippery man made stuff which makes it great for dancing (light and flowy). My dance instructor is always very happy when I show up to dance in a skirt (I admit, our dancing does seem better when you can see my legs). This was my first time sewing an item of clothing so I went with the easiest possible project and it was a success. Total cost ~ $12. And now, having survived this project, I'll be able to do something more complicated next time. Which is good, because I kind of need a lot of skirts suddenly.
