Patch workin' it

So, I've never actually done a journal, but I know ya'll will read this, won't ya guys? ;)

I've decided I am going to make a patchwork skirt. I've been wanting to make one for a while, I've just never gotten around to it. So, I went to Wal-Mart the other night to see if they had any good scrap material like they always do. Well, they built a new Wal-Mart about 7 miles down the road, and it just opened a couple weeks ago, so I went there. I looked around for their fabric section for about 25 minutes before asking someone where it was. Would you believe they don't have one! Now, I'm generally not a person to get mad.. but freakin Wal-Mart, who supposedly carries everything, is not carrying fabric. Ironic, no? Annoyed? Yes. So, I went to a different one (dreadfully), and had downscaled their fabric section. It was a dismaying circumstance to say the least. Buuut.. I left with an armful of scraps. I cleaned them out. :aww:

If you would like to see all the goodies I left with:

Yup. I got 15 bundles of joy for under $20. If you'll take notice, I have a ton of faux black leather fabric that I have no clue what on earth I am going to do with, but it shall be interesting, whatever it is.

So, I started on the skirt tonight, and I think it's going well. I've never tackled something this hard, so it's going to be interesting.
