My sewing instructor, Jennifer, had the patience of Job as she taught me the basics. Together we made a drawstring bag, an apron, and a skirt.
I had to finish the skirt on my own which was challenging but I'm really pleased with the outcome...

...here it is! This is Butterick's See and Sew B4710 pattern. I already have my next pattern and material picked out, I'm so thrilled to be learning how to sew!

I love to sew too! I took a class at BYU and it was one of my favorite classes. The skirt looks amazing!!
Your skirt is adorable. I haven't sewn in such a long time. Remember the little outfits your mom and I made for you and Stacy? I will see if I can find a picture to send to you. What is your email address?
WAY CUTE! I love it Amy!
Good for you Amy - you are seriously the do-it-all-girl! I still have an unfinished pieced baby quilt top I started in high school sewing and never finished. The skirt is super cute!
I'm impressed, Amy! I love the skirt and am very jealous of your new talent. I look forward to seeing many more fruits of your labor :)
P.S. We miss you guys!
I got a sewing machine for my birthday TOO! We can be sewing friends. I have nothing but awful stubborn failure memories of previous attempts to sew, but...this'll be great I'm sure. I've got two patterns and fabric for a skirt and a dress. Wish me luck.
Amy your skirt is so cute and so you, I love it!
Your skirt is so cute, I love to sew to, every chance I get.
"sew" fun for you! your skirt is so cute . .isn't it fun to make your own stuff?!! i do a little sewing here and there but i'm glad to know there is a little quilt shop . .i'll have to check it out sometime! can't wait to see your next project!
I love your skirt! I love sewing quilts and blankets but have been so intimidated by making clothes. You've inspired me though. I'll have to try to make something soon.
Totaly cute! I've sewn a few outfits in the past, and always enjoy the feeling of accomplishment. But I don't think I've ever done such a cute skirt!
