I “Heart” This

I know I’m cheesy. I keep looking at the Improv comedy class listings, but there aren’t any classes in the foreseeable future. Bummer.

Here’s the heart I referred to in my previous post. It has a place on our mantle with other things that are special to us.  I LOVE having a mantle! This is our first place with a mantle. 100_0491

And because it looks like I’ve always been Type A. Here’s the back. Yep, I dated it. Looks like I’ve held on to this for the past 15 years! I’m not looking to give it up anytime soon.

In other news, I’m working on my skirt draft from back in November. I’m going to do a simple dark denim skirt with a back slit. The preliminary pattern is finished in the back. I just have a few more things to do and then a preliminary mock-up (called a muslin, b/c of the material often used).

Here’s the sketch.

It isn’t too dramatic, but I’m realizing that is my style. Simple.

Peace,

    I like your skirt! I’m trying to get going on mine as well – I keep getting busy with other things. I’m determined to make at least a skirt for myself this year if nothing else :) Hopefully I will have something to post on Thursday – at the very least a sketch of what I’m making.
