Randomness and a good deal on skirts!

Yes, this post is purely random.  Why? Well, it doesn't have much of a point.  However, I wanted to say "HELLO!" to all of our readers. lol!

Actually, I do have a few things to post about. :-)

First off, I am excited to say that I will be adding some new things to my shop.  I have a brown linen/cotton material (tanish-khaki brown) that I will be making a skirt out of.. However, I will actually be listing this one for sale on the shop.  The skirt I have listed right now is mine, but I wanted to just list something else on there, and customers get an idea of what kind of sewing I do.
  So, my problem: what size do I make it? Most everyone who has voted on my pole is size 8.. so, should I do size 8? I also don't know if someone would be interested in actually buying it.
  Secondly, I am looking for someone to do a custom order with.  I would like to get some practice on doing custom orders on skirts and was looking for a volunteer. ;-)  If I find someone to do this for me, I will use the brown material just mentioned, and make you only pay around $15 dollars.  So, this is a great deal, Ladies!! =D
    If anyone is SERIOUSLY interested in this, please let me know..
Also, I am trying to sell some Cotton Sheer fabric. This is PERFECT for Civil War reenactors.  I have 10 yards of it.  So, if any of you have reenactor friends, or are reenactors yourselves, please pass the word along! I am going to sell it for $5-$6 dollars a yard. 
   Picture below:

I just had a very fun, old fashioned delight today.. making bread!!  I LOVE making bread. Especially when I can knead it. There is nothing more satisfying than kneading a ball of bread dough.  I feel like a content little housekeeper/homemaker when I can knead bread.  Right now it is baking in the oven. 
  So, off to get dressed for the evening to be spent with some dear friends! :-) Fun, fun, fun!
Hope everyone is having a wonderful Friday evening!

Blessings,
Sarah
