So the sewing I was talking about. Did you notice Isabelle’s outfit from yesterday’s post? I made it (fire ha ha ha)! The halter top is d-2 and the skirt is h-2 from isbn 4579109708. The red fabric was more $1 a yard fabric from Joann Fabrics. The plain gray cotton for her skirt cost more! And because I didn’t pay attention when I was making her skirt I cut it wrong so that means it was even more expensive! Wasted fabric, damn it! And I liked the plain fabric. I must get some more.

Something that I’ve been noticing lately with all this sewing is fabric choice. I don’t usually think too much about it. I usually get 100% cotton because I’m thinking about quilting, or something I think is pretty, or of course something inexpensive (hee hee hee I’m such a sucker for $1 a yard fabric). But I noticed that this skirt is very wrinkly. And I made myself a skirt and it was also very wrinkly. Why oh why is it so wrinkly? And oh, wait until I show you my new skirt that I used “pretty” fabric for. It’s too heavy. Such a bummer. I really need to think more about fabric. Anyone have any helpful information they’d like to share?
