Gorgeous Halloween Weekend in Michigan and M5631

In all of my 26 years I can never remember a Halloween where the weather was as perfect as it was this year. I clearly remember going trick-or-treating with my parents carrying an umbrella, and most times with a heavy jacket. This year the weather was dry and only chilly! To mark the great weather I dressed up..lol! I found the cutest bavarian beer girl costume at "PRICILLA'S" (local adult store) and I went to a few parties, bar hopped and then hit the casino! I'll see if I can find a few clear pix to post tomorrow.

I also finished my McCall's 5631

I LOVE THIS SKIRT !!! I cant wait to wear it this week
I made a size 18 and cute off a few inches from the hem...lol.. its just above my knees now

I found a cotton pique that looks almost like the pattern envelope. It's heavy enough so I can still wear it as the weather turns.






I used a piece of black satin for the waist band and bow.


The skirt has three rows of pin-tucks at the bottom that are hard to see on the fabric, but I know they are there - and they re fabo!



ok I'm heading to bed so I can vote tomorrow !!!!!
