Alder Skirt pattern testing

I was so fortunate to be able to test the new alder skirt (for girls) for Rachael at Imagine Gnats.

This is such a cute, basic skirt pattern - great for beginners! 

I really love the way it came out, and I can't wait to make some more - I think this will be a great option for school skirts - cute, flattering, and just the right length. 

Plus pockets! My kids are obsessed with pockets, so this is definitely a winner in their book!

I encourage you to pop over to Rachael's shop and pick up your own copy - there is even a pattern sized for women! I'm excited to make one for myself too!

KCW Day 2: Easy Peasy!

After my exhaustion of the Family Reunion Dress x2 Monday, I decided to take it easy Tuesday. I had fabric for several skirts for the girls, so I decided to whip those up.



There is an 'H' skirt, a 'K' skirt, 'L' skirts and turkey skirts just for fun! (I can't resist some holiday fun!)

I also managed to get Ben's Zebra costume made, now I just need to make him a mane and tail and make Samantha's tail.



It's nice to have a big whack of projects completed!
