I have returned!

I realize it's been a while since I last wrote, I got sick for a couple of days. I ended up watching a bunch of anime including Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo, and Eden of the East! Yowza! I loved the book The Count of Monte Cristo, but I forgot how sad it was. I ended up crying most of the time I was sick, watching characters die....
Anyway, I'm feeling better and happier, and it is with great happiness that I announce I finished my friend's skirt!

New Butterfly skirt!

The original template!

The fabric was a nightmare to work with (to say the least) but I think it looks fantastic! It was the first time I had to work without a pattern (I just had to eye the whole thing) but it think it turned out great!  I'm really excited to give it to my friend! I'm hoping to get some pictures of her wearing it soon so I can post them here of course!
