Sewing -  I'm working on (and having trouble with) Marfy 2779

                                             

                 I mentioned my Marfy 3443
                 Simplicity 2564 seems to be out of print
                            I forgot to say the fabric is a stretch cotton bottom-weight from Pennie Fabrics in Sarasota
                                              skirt selfie...  Is that a thing?  It is now.

  2. Haha, I was excited to hear Paul and Mark's take on Mommy sewing for them. I know Mark thought everything was weird, but at least (and unlike if I had tried) there were no potty references!
