Even with my word being 'Focus' I change direction or stop what I'm doing if the cause is important and what could be more important than my granddaughters' needing me to make them poodle skirts for a program at school. They were very clear they did not want them the same. I did pink poodle on gray for Sarah and purple (of course since she has grandma's taste) with a white poodle for Grace.
I made them out of felt. I was surprise by the color selections available at Hobby Lobby. I still have to add a hook and eye closure on each and will probably need to shorten one or both of them. I didn't hem them since felt doesn't need it. I can't wait to see them in the skirts. It sure brought back memories of my youth. Loved the circle skirts, scarf tied around the neck, saddle shoes, ponytail and of course white socks. We used to roll the tops of the socks down, did anyone else?
Now back to my other projects!
