Another blog that I love is "no big dill". This woman can sew and she have 5 girls to boot.

I recently copied her lace skirt.
hers is amazing.
I could not find the exact hue in green and really wish I did, but I am happy with my armature approach.
I need a classier blouse and not wear boots, then maybe, just maybe I could look at good as that mother of 5. Oh and I could use a really cool camera too to make myself look better. Maybe not slouch and so on and on and on.... but you get the picture. Here's how she did it.


Speaking of boots, it was 31 BELOW zero last night. I wanted to cry in pain this morning taking Claire to her friends house because my skin hurt from the cold. I think it was still below zero. 
Lyndon said today confirmed his wish to move to New Zealand. Amen to that.
