Crafty me

Here are a couple pictures of Ivy in her Halloween outfit/costume. Super cute out fit by day..... add a cape, broom and hat and it's a witch costume for trick or treating at night! Ta da!

This outfit is how I broke my old machine, I think. It's only three layers of cotton, but since they are all gathered, I think the old gal just had a hard time chugging through. Bad news for her, great news for me. I made a second twirl skirt and the difference in sewing is unbelievable. I know there is a learning curve, so the experience with the first helped somewhat, but I credit my quantum a great deal too. I should finish the second outfit tonight and have pics up soon!

I also bought a pattern for pants.... those are next in the project line.
