neat and tidy = productive

I somehow feel much calmer when my fabric shelves are neat.  And more creative because sorting through the fabric gives me so many ideas!

I absolutely love colour.  So many new combinations just waiting to become something special!

And I have been sewing with the fabric too, not just playing and dreaming!  Some memory card sets, off to Under the Oak…

…birthday banners, and alphabet, and custom name banners…

…and a sweet little reversible skirt (girl clothes!  With two boys, this is only the second skirt I’ve ever sewn that wasn’t for myself).  This was so much fun to make that I’m hoping to do some more.

I’d love some feedback about skirts – do you think there’s room for more skirts out there in the world of girly clothing?  I’m wondering about bigger sizes, say girls’ sizes 6 to 12ish?  I know there is a lot of teeny tiny sizes already available, but perhaps there’s a need for something sweet for young ladies?
