Red Ginger Colette Skirt
Red Ginger Skirt from Colette Patterns..
I love this skirt..it is so simple to make and comfortable to wear. I added the nautical buttons because I also made a white and navy nautical violet blouse to wear with it.
I joined the ginger sew along and this was my muslin.. I liked it so , finished it up. Will add pictures of the actual skirt, once I have finished it.

Look at my vinage fabric finds on Saturday.. Two bags full... $5.00
When I got home and looked in the bags... [I bought sight unseen].I was so amazed. It was
tons of fabric..some pretty..some not so pretty.. And then at the bottom of the bag, was this beautiful
quilt top..All Peiced together and ready to quilt.. I carefully washed it.Now. I will find a quilter ,to quilt it
for me. As, I ironed this top.. I wondered who was the lady who worked so hard on this beautiful quilt??
My mind roamed and it was such a nice Saturday.. What a great find..
