My friend, Amy, is an incredible seamstress and can make pretty much anything with some cloth, thread, and a sewing machine. I saw a little tutorial on a blogpost on how to make your own maxi skirts and knew that was my golden ticket. After sending a desperate plea via email to Amy, we coordinated a date for me to go up to her place in Vacaville and have a little sewing fun. I wound up coming home with four skirts that are incredibly comfortable and super easy and quick to make. We sewed from about 1:30 to 4 pm and I type this wearing one of our creations. I might have to make some more. It is the perfect article of clothing. Love, love, love.

Sew Fun!
I have a maternity maxi skirt that I found at Target a few weeks ago, and it has become my favorite article of clothing; very comfortable and easy to wear. In the last week, some of my staple bottom pieces have started to not fit quite like they used to. I hate the thought of paying tons of money for maternity clothing I might never wear again, and decided I needed some more comfy skirts. Especially since I'm going through the last stages of pregnancy in the heat of the summer (we're due at the end of July--what was I thinking?!?!?!?!).

They turned out so cute and it was such a fun afternoon! Glad you are enjoying your new skirts!
Lucky! You are only just now needing maternity clothes? I always need to move up a pants size by 6 weeks and I don my maternity clothes by week 12 (even with Jonathan). I can't even make it out of the first trimester! So not fair!
Shaine! I din't even think of this... but I have a ton of maternity clothes you can use. All sizes XL, a handful are XXL (just wait until the last month...) I can mail them to you if you want. Email me.
Ya, Im not looking forward to summer either! Thats awesome that you made your own clothes. :)
