I had a date...

Yes. I. did. and it was wonderful!!! Saturday night I spent SIX lovely hours with this baby...Actually, I have spent many hours with him lately and I am enjoying every minute of it! I still can't believe that a few months ago I didn't have a clue as to how to even sew a button on. If it needed a button, it went into the garbage and we would just go shopping.

Not anymore! A few weeks ago, Wade needed me to sew a button on one of his button up shirts. I told him that I would but I needed to find one first. He lifted his shirt and showed me these two little buttons attached on the inside of the shirt...OMG....I NEVER knew what those buttons were for...LOL...He just shook his head at me.. It is such a wonderful feeling to be able to "repair" an article of clothing instead of tossing it. It is also a great feeling to be able to sit down and make something for myself or my family. Oh, back to my Saturday night date....I made this...I have been wanting to do something to our kids/guest bathroom for a while, but I have not seen anything in the stores that I wanted. So what did I do....I loaded everyone up Saturday afternoon and off to Hobby Lobby we went! I had the colors in mind that I wanted to use and when I saw the zebra fabric it all came together in my mind....So this is the finished product...

I have never sewed sewn anything quite as large as this shower curtain (from scratch) so it took me a minute, but I think it all came together great, if I do say so myself. I am proud. :o)
