I love flour sacks. They feel clean and crisp and old all at the same time. And because I love them I am always trying to think of ways that I can use them. This is what I came up with recently...some new night gowns for my little girl. (She loves night gowns as much as I love flour sacks.) Here's what I did: I roughly traced the outline of a favorite nightgown onto some butcher paper. Then I got rid of the sleeves and added few inches over the shoulders to make straps that would button. ... View the Post

A layered skirt
Hannah has been asking me to make her a new layered skirt ever since hers got too small.....and I got it done today. I loved this fabric that I made some skirts out of a week or so ago for a birthday order, and I had to go and get some for myself.....plus a bit more (doesn't that always happen?)
