When I met Chardon...

I know, I know! Another Deer & Doe project. But I did warn you anyway so now you'll just have to go with it :-)

This week I'm introducing the Chardon skirt which is a high waisted pleated skirt. At first I wasn't sure about the shape of it due to the shape of me (hehe) and was worried it would make me look much larger than I already am... Pleated skirts don't always flatter the figure of curvy women. But I'd been looking for a cute skirt for a while and I really wanted to try anyway. And also, I saw this picture on their online shop and I was sold! Plus, I already had the Ondee sweater so might as well make something to go with it, right?!

A sweatshirt for my niece

Another birthday in the family: yep! We have them each month from September through June so be ready to see more posts about that probably.

 

This one was actually back in October when my niece turned 15. 15!! I can't believe how big she is: seems like it was yesterday that I was holding her in my arms *sigh*
