Valentine's day is coming soon. Time for us ladies to turn up the sexy and the fellas to turn up the compliments and kind gestures. Growing up, Valentine's Day was a big deal. My mom always bought me a cute dress. She knew the way to this girl's heart. I have such great memories of her. Today's her birthday so I'm really remembering all those good times with her today.
OK OK OK If I don't move on, I'm going to become a water head. That doesn't make a very fun blog post. So, here we go.
I've had some really cool red pleather fabric I got from Hancock for a while. I have been thinking and thinking and thinking (that's a lot of thinking) about what I can make. Initially, I thought a dress. Then, I thought some really sexy pants. Then, a few nights ago, I thought circle skirt. I fallen in love with them. They are sexy and flirty without being slutty. I just love how fun they are.
I set out to make the perfect circle skirt. I needed guidance. Where did I go? You know it. I went to YouTube. I found many tutorials but one stood out as simple and to the point. Shout out to m4keshiftmichelle for the great tutorial.
I followed her tutorial but added about 3 inches to the skirt. I have a nice sized butt and I didn't want it hanging out. Here's the finished skirt:
I wore it to a funeral this past weekend. Everyone was so busy. I didn't get to take a pic of me wearing it. I got lots of compliments though. Everyone was shocked I made it. My niece and little cousin have put in requests for their own.
I've been making a lot this month. Hopefully, by the end of the month I will be able to post a February wrap up post.

I've been making a lot this month. Hopefully, by the end of the month I will be able to post a February wrap up post.
Here's a little food for thought:
Make good memories.
One day, they will be all you have.
