with needle & thREAD

Joining with Eliabeth

Not too much sewing going on, but a lot of cutting ... to me, it's the most time consuming.  I try to cut out many and then sew assembly-line style.  The patterns are from The King's Daughters.

Projects ready to sew:

2 Button Dresses
1 Jumper
1 Skirt

All for my oldest daughter ... she's a size 8 in the waist and a size 16 in height.  Try finding clothes that fit!

To conclude from yesterday's post, my spiritual reading that I do along side the daily Mass readings is The Conversation with God  The funny thing is that in today's reading it talks of the 'heroic minute' on pg. 491 of volume two.  I just had blogged about that the other day!

Skirts or Pants?

For some time now, I've been contemplating how I dress and how my four daughters dress.  Currently, I am wearing a jean skirt but that is more unusual than the norm.  I'm mostly a jean (pants) type of gal, but situations over the past six years have made me re-think what I wear.

One thing that I find funny though is that 90% of my running wardrobe is skirts, either from Skirt Sports or Running Skirts.

The following video was posted on The Modest Mom and has me back to thinking...
