Pinterest Fails

I am not a seamstress. I get frustrated when I sew. This weekend Crista was here for conference and Spring Break. We decided that we wanted to make skirts. We found a cute skirt from Pinterest and decided we would try it. We went to the fabric store and I found some really cute yellow fabric with small white flowers that I liked. I also found a white, dressy, ruffly shirt that I thought would be Springy and cute to wear with the skirt. I was so excited. I was going to get some white sandals and yeah I have an Easter outfit. The skirt was only $7.50. Crista bought a aqua print fabric and we got to work. It took us about seven hours to make. I did an okay job of sewing and it looks decent just laying on the table. Crista and I decided that the person who made the dress and blogged about it has no curves. This skirt made me look very frumpy. I know I am frumpy but it exaggerated my frumpiness. I am going to have to work on it or something before I can wear it in public. Oh well, I am glad that I did not pay more than $7.50 for the fabric. We won't talk about the time because I got to spend it with my favorite daughter. This is what it should look like.
