It's finished!

I had a moment of genius! Nor really. But it sounded good! I was about to place an order for an extra yard of fabric for the Kaehra tunic - something just told me to look at it again.  This is what I stared at for 10 minutes:

Then I realized that I could try to cut just the front yokes again from the one front piece that I completely messed up! And no, I don't have a picture of that!
But it worked. I saved Euro 16 for that additional yardage and I was able  finish the top.  Well, except for the hemming and the belt. But we aren't too picky about that, are we! LOL...
Here is P in all her 70's glory:

By the way, P was mistaken in the date for the dance. It's actually next week. But it all worked out didn't it! Her top is ready and I can check of another item of my sewing list!
 
I was also able to finish J's skirt. She chose a black baby corduroy with cute skulls on it. She proudly wore it to school.


Here is a close up of the fabric:

Next up, another bath mat for my mom and a passport organizer for our trip to Arizona this summer.

Tada for now
