There's a colorful girl in my life who is going to be eleven very soon. Pale, soft colors and frills and fluffs are not her thing. She's all about big, bold, and wild. Lots of glitz, lots of color, lots of splash and panache for this one. So, I chose some fabric from my collection to match her vibrant personality.
I saw this Twirly Skirt a while ago, and have kept it in the back of my mind to make for her ever since. The skirt pattern has made it's appearance around and about in other places I like to visit, too. Sally made one (or was it two?) for herself last spring, and Alicia did, too.
So, here it is, all bright, sassy and ready for a twirl.
Now, a skirt has to have a shirt, so, to go with it, a butterflied tee...
with a dragonfly on the back shoulder.
A birthday gift that's just as wild and carefree as she is. Happy Eleventh, Khaila!
