I Shirr-Did!
... okay, really, REALLY bad joke (sorry). Last night I got a heap of fabric in the mail that I ordered with some b-day money.
And even though I was going to take a break for a few days from sewing, I saw the hot pink Euro-style knit fabric (bottom of pile) and HAD, I mean HAD to make something right away. I googled "shirring" and found some tutorials on craftster. I was intrigued. So, I loaded my bobbin with elastic thread and went to town. Shirring isn't as scary as I anticipated. Although, I did pull the threads a little to tight, so the dress is a wee bit snug. But hey, fashion hurts sometimes, right?

My mother always said...you have to suffer to be beautiful! We should swap fabric. I love all the stash building stuff you got. Nicole
