Simple Things

Today I had the opportunity to actually sit down and try to sew a skirt. I've been wanting to for sooo long.

I started out doing one for Bella just to practice on.

Hers turned out good, just a simple mid calf length A line skirt. Don't ask me about a pattern because there wasn't one.  Her skirt is a little wrinkled because my iron died back a few months ago. Next, I endeavored to make myself a skirt, a much needed skirt.

Laundry is so rough on your clothes here so a lot of the things we brought with us look terrible after just a few months.

I began my skirt having never made one before and I ended up finding a tutorial on the internet that really helped me. I borrowed a zipper from Addy since I lacked one and knew that I didn't want an elastic waste. Well, I think the finished product is nice and I will try to post a picture of that one soon.

Just thought I would share this picture of the giant pineapple I found at market this morning. The one on the left is more the normal size pineapple I get. Check out the size!

I also laid some coconuts and custard apple so you can see the how monstrous this was. Though it looked green it was super sweet!
