A Killer Skirt

We joke in sewing class that sewing is an extreme sport. Last night proved that either A) sewing is indeed just that or B) I am just plain stupid!

The bulb blew on my machine. It was late. I didn't think. I started hacking away with a screwdriver forgetting I was still plugged in and switched on. Next thing there is a spark and a bang and the electricity goes out. I sat there a bit stunned and then realised that if it weren't for the clipsal safety switch, I might have been sizzled! It turns out that I didn't even need a screwdriver to get the bulb out *sigh*

So this really is one killer skirt and was made using this tute and I added a ribbon hem, really just an adult version of the Lazy Days Skirt.



and please excuse the mess in the background, I have kids!



Oh and I think that from options A and B.....B is correct LOL
