During K’s last real crib nap on Saturday (yeah, the big girl bed and big girl naps do NOT go hand-in-hand so far…) I mustered up the courage to use my sewing machine again.
MONTHS ago I pinned an easy skirt idea and bought the supplies and everything. But I had a few problems with my brand new machine can you say user error? and was a little hesitant to try again.
But thankfully the stars and seams aligned (!) and I channeled just a bit of the sewing abilities of her and her (I do admire them so!) and I was able to make a skirt for K in just a couple of hours (with interruptions from a couple of certain boys wanting snacks, etc.)
I may even be brave enough to make another one (or three).
I mean after all, it’s perfect for scooter-ing and dancing in the yard… 🙂

Adorable skirt, and well done!!!
Love it. And it is perfect for all things little girly. I do hear that going to the fabric store is addicting though.
Great job! I’m impressed! I can hardly thread a needle. 😉 I love the fabric you chose!
I love it! It’s adorable as is she. 🙂 And I am so not crafty in any way so this is HUGE to me!

It’s so cute. what kind of fabric did you use, all cotton?
Oh my I love that skirt! I am cutting a pattern out for a cape for my daughter and I am scared but still cutting. We shall see!
LOVE it … girly skirts are the best!
your skit, her skirt, who ever gets to “claim” it, is perfect! love that it is a bit long so it will grow with her.
Good job! The key to sewing is to just practicing.
It’s ADORABLE!!
You did such great job!!
Very cute! You did a good job.

It is a nice sense of accomplishment when you finish isn’t it?! I have so many projects that I need to get to. Why don’t I have an extra day where I can be alone each week! Imagine what we could get done!
