Making a Colonial Petticoat

Our "to-do" list is rather interesting right now, as we are getting ready for Jeff to head off to the ABANA conference in South Dakota tomorrow, work the conference since he is on the board of ABANA, and rush home on Friday in time to demonstrate at the Claude Moore Market Fair on Saturday and Sunday.  One of the things we'd love to get done today is to make me a new petticoat that will be lighter (and hopefully cooler!) for next weekend.

Neither Jeff nor I understand much about sewing, but we are muddling along, thanks in large part to some good instructions.  Hopefully, we'll get it done in time!
