I did it. I got brave. I sat down and said "today is the day" and by cracky, it was! I cut out my dress for Peanut's graduation. I was nervous... I mean, if I mess this up then I'm going to be in one serious pickle. I want to wear something pretty and today's fashions are not pretty - shoot, they aren't even feminine!

So after I cut out my pattern, I noticed that I had about a yard left over. That is the perfect amount for a Hobbit skirt! Then I noticed the odds and ends from my pattern cutting. That would make a great addition to my mama's quilt material stash!
After those two discoveries, I felt very frugal indeed. You see, my material was on sale - it helped to ease my fear knowing that I was using "stale" material that was discounted. This means that for a whopping $19 I am going to have a dress for me, a skirt for Hobbit and be part of a quilt by my mama. I think that is money well spent.
