Skirts!



Here are my two new skirts. I made them both and had so much fun. The 2nd one I call my "officer skirt" The stripe down the side is left over from converting an enlisted uniform into an officer uniform. The great thing about this skirt is that it will always outrank Stewart. So right now it's a captains skirt and once Stewart makes captain then it will be a major skirt. I guess I could just say it's a colonel skirt but that doesn't mess with Stewart enough.

The green one also has a great story. I held up the material and said "won't this make a cute skirt?" he said "no." So I made it anyway and he's probably right that it's not very cute since he has better fashion sense than me. I love it though because it's so bright. I still have a pink one to make. I did make a gray one but it bombed big time so it's not going to be posted until I can fix it.
