Ginger Colette Skirt--

Ginger skirt-  Used 2 yds Fabric from Stash
The Violet Colette blouse was made earlier.

This was a quick sew.. I really needed to  sew  something.
I have really missed it.

Now, let me explain ,why I haven't blogged or sewed!!!
We have decided to sale our house,  when or if it sales,
move into Kenny's deer camp, until we can build
 a  house out there!!!

Now, this has led to some major work.. We  had  our
ceramic floors in the kitchen and hall , ripped out and wood
laminated floors installed.. [what a mess they made!!!'} . We put
in new french doors, 2 new doors, utility rooms on the carport.
 Trying to spruce   the place up.

I also painted our bedroom, while in the midst of  it,
I began to have  really rough pain..  I thought
I might be delivering my third child  [oh what a nightmare
at this age,ha]. Kidney stone./ went to the doctor, it
was too big to pass, so they had to go in and get it.
Now, I have a stint in.. I hope to get it out real soon.
The doctor said, 2-3 weeks???

 Hopefully, things will get better real soon. And I will be
able to return to my blogging /sewing self..

  2. Oh dear! It sounds like you've hit a busy spot. I hope your health problems will be resolved soon; that doesn't sound fun at all.

    The skirt is beautiful. I hope it cheered you up!

    1. It has been extremely busy around here...

      Thank you.I so enjoyed making the skirt, I think--- this has been the longest non- sewing period in a long time... Hope to do some more easy projects.. -no time for big ones]. It is super easy , and comfortable to wear.

  3. Oh, dear Judy, I am so sorry to hear about your recent illness! I will be praying that you are feeling better soon. You certainly have had a busy summer...and so exciting! Selling your house!!! Wow! How far away is Kenny's deer camp? I'm so happy for the both of you...I hope that your home sells quickly and that you can get settled before winter sets in.

    Love you!
    Laura

    P. S. Of course, I LOVE the skirt...it's in my favorite girly color!

      Thank you for the prayers..This one has been really rough.. I think , because it was so big. I go back to the urologist tomorrow, so hope to get the stint out real soon..

      THe deer camp is about 8 miles from our house.. so not far at all.

  6. Oh dear, take very good care of yourself. I thin resting near your sewing machine would help... Maybe with material running under the pressure foot - yep that should make you feel better. :-) Seriously do take care.

  12. So that is what you have been up to. Sorry to hear about the kidney stone - I hope this is the first and last episode you have. And great excitement, selling and moving, but always a lot of work. No wonder you have not done much sewing - how frustrating for you - but the move is probably going to be wonderful (when it is all over). Next year I have to resume a busy life too - so we must somehow encourage each other to find a few minutes a day to sew :)
