Sassy Summer Duds


I made this for Avery yesterday. I started out with a plan to make another new bag, but when i was digging around in my stash i got sidetracked by this fabric. These two fabrics have been sitting side by side destined to be used together but i did not know what they would be until yesterday. Avery was wearing a cute little skirt from Julia and i thought that it seemed like it would be easy enough to make....so i just started cutting and sewing and this is the end result. I am afraid of patterns so it felt good not to use one this time, otherwise it probably would never have been made. Avery was a very unwilling model today that is why it is only the skirt in the picture not the grouchy face too.

Oh I love that skirt..that's great, I saw a cool fabric shop in downtown Auckland and wished so bad I had a sewing machine and time in my day to do crafty projects. I love to sew..not that I'm any good at it, but still fun for me.
