Several weeks ago I made a skirt and learned how to do a french seam!!!! I was following directions from a sewing book and thought I would post pictures!!!!!

Sew seam with wrong sides together

Trim seam

Fold fabric wrong side out and sew the seam again

I love the finished look!!!! So easy!

During the winter months this is how we would often spend our Saturday afternoons! Sitting in the fireplace room reading, doing computer work, sewing, talking and snuggling!!!!

Pumpkin Scones.....Way too yummy!!!!!

White placemats were $0.95 a piece! We paid a little more for the brown twig placemats but they were still a good deal!
