A Crazy Last Minute Idea

So.... Meg has been saying for the last several months...."Hey Mom, how about you helping me finish that skirt that I cut out in Young Women's last fall."  But for some reason, she and I never got it done.  Well.....this week Meg was wondering what she should wear for her graduation night under her gown.  Here comes the crazy idea.  Yes, that's right, we chose the night before graduation to finally finish the skirt.  Well, kind of.  We actually realized about half way through the process, that the skirt called for a zipper which we had not bought.  So....we finished it all except for the zipper and the night of the graduation, I just sewed it up after she put it on.  She did a great job and looked amazing.  Now we just have to go find a 7 inch zipper.  :)

Just starting out

Here she is....the seamstress

Finished (well, kind of) product

A quick stitch job.  Hey, it stayed closed and there was a gown over it most of the night.  
It worked.  :)
