I couldn&#8217;t do the V-yoke or those cute little scallop dealies. Oh well, mine didn&#8217;t cost $165. I used for the centerpiece a little piece of Liberty of London fabric that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.twelve22.org\/\">Anna<\/a> sent me a while back. I then went to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fabricdepot.com\/\">Fabric Depot<\/a> and spaced out for a really long time trying to find complementary fabrics. I didn&#8217;t find exactly what I was looking for, but you know how that can be. So anyway, the reason I call it the garbage skirt is because the woman who cut the fabric for me asked me what I was going to make, and I said a tiered skirt with some stuff on it, and she proceeded to tell me that she loves to make skirts with all kinds of fabrics and stick a bunch of lace on them. She calls them her garbage skirts, I&#8217;m assuming because she uses all remnants. I thought that was great.<br \/>\nOkay, I&#8217;d better get back to sewing. My in-laws arrive tomorrow, so I need to get in some last-minute sewing! I might eat some ice cream first, though.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Remember Penguin shirts?
