Fabric Shopping in Puerto Vallarta Mexico

At the end of last year my husband and I had one of those "numbered" anniversaries. We haven't done much to celebrate in the past and so we decided it was kind of a good excuse to save up and plan for a short get-away trip.  And if you know me in real life you would know that I love a good deal....so while we didn't have a specific destination planned (I was thinking it would be close but a warm vacation--it was in the winter) I ended up finding a GREAT deal on a 2 person trip to Mexico and ...

Easy Ruffle Pencil Skirt

Today we have an easy pencil ruffle skirt to share with you. Last week I finally took 30 minutes and made myself something! Using 1 yard of ruffle fabric and the tutorial we wrote for HOW TO MAKE A PENCIL SKIRT I whipped this out in between quilt market projects. I love the ruffle fabric...its soft and feminine and comfortable.  Plus I think I could dress this skirt up or down which means I will be wearing it all summer! If summer ever comes..... ...
