Skort remake 1 done! Lobelias in the garden.

I had some time today to get one of the four skort remakes done. It looks even better than I expected (love, love, love when that happens because it doesn't always). And.....good news! I don't have coordinating fabric in my stash to finish the other three so I have to go to the fabric store. That means I either have control over my fabric buying habits, or don't have a big enough stash! Now I want to make a coordinating top for daughter out of the swirly ruffle fabric. I am eyeing her old t-shirts and considering some kind of applique. Lollipops, Popsicles?


In the garden, I planted some sky riviera lobelia around the base of my camellia. I hope it grows into a pretty little lobelia wreath.

Wishing everyone a lovely 4th of July. We'll be celebrating at the lake, bbq'ing with family and organizing our closets (not necessarily in that order!).
