Skirt Splendor

Filed under: Sewing — admin at 1:15 pm on Tuesday, April 22, 2008


Here is the latest skirt for Miss Peppy’s wardrobe. We are all about the skirt. Yesterday, Peppy stared at me and declared, “Mama, you look so fancy today!”. To say I was surprised by this is an understatement. You see, I had my muddy Crocs on (just came in from the yard) and a skirt that is definitely the “working in the yard and threw it on kind”! Anyway, I came up with this skirt for my fancy girl.

The “twirlability” is obvious and so much fun.

When asked if she liked her new skirt she was enthusiastic, but quickly added, “Where are the pockets?”. Come on now!!

I think I will give my skirt/shirt making a rest and begin work on some more table dots and picnic blankets. Look for a shop update soon!

Twirlability (and pockets) are important to me too! Absolutely adorable!

What a cutie, and what fun! I bet I would have thought you looked kinda fancy too! :-)

Doe she have her shoes on the wrong feet? Too cute if she does. Well actually, too cute either way.

Your little dsughter is too sweet! Isn’t it nice to know that she thinks you are “fancy” and beautiful even when you don’t think you are? :) I have an almost-4 year old son who is my biggest fan even especially when I am not looking or feeling my best! Your blog is so wonderful and I have been reading it often lately, having added it to my list of favorites! You are inspiring me to sew some more!! :)
