So my Mom and I have been busy busy busy. Between "homeschooling" little A this month, caring for the grunting baby and cooking non-stop, our little fingers have been busy working on all sorts of things. Mom got back into her sewing element again and her first creation on the sewing machine was this lovely Market Skirt by Made. We love love love Dana's blog and all her sewing ideas. Her tutorial (see the link) was useful to jump start Mom's creative hands and saved her a lot of time drawing a pattern.
Little A LOVED it, from the buttons, to the big pockets at the side (her request), to the swirly twirly feel of it. I really should learn to be more adept at the sewing machine... Market Skirts for everyone for Christmas?? Hmmm... ;)
Oooh, I love the skirt too! All little girls love to twirl, don't they? I would love to be able to sew too, there is something very therapeutic about making things with your hands, whether it's cooking or crafts.
