GaiasRose	Posted - Jan 22 2007 : 5:37:33 PM into a warm Winter skirt. Finished it this afternoon after starting it yesterday. It is soooooo warm with some warm tights and a flannel petti on underneath. Toasty!! ~~Brightest Blessings~~ Tasha-Rose Blogs: http://gaiarose.wordpress.com http://frugalwitch.wordpress.com http://tasharose365.wordpress.com/ Homepage: http://mysticwoodsfarm.com

GaiasRose	Posted - Jan 25 2007 : 1:38:39 PM Oh no Clare, you can still wear skirts and dresses on cold days. I wear tights and pettis with long skirts to stay warm. I love it. I feel so girlie and feminine (strange thing to hear from a feminist-huh?) and I feel like I am suppose to be this way. I love my skirts... ~~Brightest Blessings~~ Tasha-Rose Blogs: http://gaiarose.wordpress.com http://frugalwitch.wordpress.com http://tasharose365.wordpress.com/ Homepage: http://mysticwoodsfarm.com
suzyhomemaker	Posted - Jan 25 2007 : 1:27:49 PM Oh, how fun!! I love it!!! I think you have a wonderful sense of personal style and great sense of design. I am working on this as I feel more timid about reinventing items, but I am getting better. I love the long skirts and wear them with leggings or warm cottong tights, too. Too cold today for one, though, unless I stay inside for most of it. Sunshine, I saw Seven Brides for Seven Brothers MANY times as my in laws own it, and my daughter adores it.

faithymom	Posted - Jan 24 2007 : 10:26:20 AM Tasha, that's great! I am seriously considering switching to skirts and petticoats...I LOVE how it feels to be wearing them. I have a favorite petticoat that I made from a pair of eyelet curtain panels... it's very sweet. Wow! It seems as though each day I come to this site, I read/see another thing that just burns this dream of farm-life deeper into my heart... It's a good feeling, but it can make it hard to be in the 'waiting' time of it... All of you inspire me. Thanks. Faith "All television is educational television.

gregs_lil_farmgirl	Posted - Jan 24 2007 : 04:16:34 AM I am glad I am not the only one who loves the "prairie girl" feel. I too wear long skirts, petticoated with an extra layer for warmth and leggings. It never slows me down, and i can hop right up on a tractor very comfortably. Great job, Tasha on the skirts. You wear it with great style to boot. -Simple pleasures make my heart smile-

GaiasRose	Posted - Jan 23 2007 : 06:27:11 AM It is a wrap skirt with super long ties. It is heavy but not hard to walk in or wear. I think you can see them in the second photo, the photo of the backside. ~~Brightest Blessings~~ Tasha-Rose Blogs: http://gaiarose.wordpress.com http://frugalwitch.wordpress.com http://tasharose365.wordpress.com/ Homepage: http://mysticwoodsfarm.com
shmeg	Posted - Jan 23 2007 : 05:17:43 AM I can't believe how quickly you can make these things. You are so talented!
Photobugs	Posted - Jan 22 2007 : 11:09:56 PM How cute! Did you put in a zipper or tie for holding it on? Is it terribly heavy to wear and walk in? Very prairie girl! Pamela http://homesteadmercantile.blogspot.com/

Aunt George	Posted - Jan 22 2007 : 7:52:40 PM I do love the way it drapes. Shorter on the sides, longer in front. It looks so cozy and like you are a pioneer woman making something to keep yourself warm for the long winters on the prarie! http://auntgeorgeshouse.blogspot.com/index.html Thanks for checking out my apron and sewing musings!
