Just a boy mom, drowning in ruffles.....
So since my serger was behaving and helping me make fantastic ruffles for the twirly dresses, I decided that I should finally bust out some twirly summer skirts I'd cut for my niece last year, before putting them in time-out because the serger was being a pain. After all, I didn't want her to outgrow them before she wore them! And these really are perfect for summer.
I've made quite a few Rachel skirts for my niece, though I haven't blogged them all. These were cut out in a size 8. (Fortunately, I record details when I cut them, because it's been a year! I wouldn't have remembered.) I used to use buttonhole elastic on her skirts, but these ones just use regular elastic. I figure she'll outgrow them before the expandable elastic would have been super helpful. And of course, her doll needed matching skirts!
My favorite - I'm not really a paisley person, but this print is super cute. And I love the teal and fuschia. |
I thought the orange dots were fun. |
Love the strawberries and bicycles in this main print! I thought the whole thing was super summery. |
