Lazy Days and Twirly Whirly Skirts

Any day spent sewing, is a good day. ~Author Unknown

Just before we left for our holidays I saw Mel's plans to make a twirly skirt for her daughter and the whole time we were away I spent dreaming of the beautiful fabrics I would find for a twirly skirt for my dear Ess.

Little Eee's Appley Lazy Days Skirt

I returned home to find that Mel has been holding a sew-along this week with Lazy Days Skirts. I just couldn't help myself, my creative fingers were itching to make something pretty for my little girls.

Fortunately my stash had something pretty in it which was enough to make a small lazy days skirt for my dear 2 year old Eee. Fortunately my stash also held a matching red satin ribbon which made a beautiful trim, as well as ribbons to tie her cute piggy tails.

Can you tell it is hard not to move when wearing a pretty skirt? Or should that be 'when one is only two years old?'

I joined the sew-along and now some lovely fabrics from Quilt Fabric Delights seen here and here are hanging on my clothesline, hoping for some sunshine to dry them so I can begin to make more lazy days and twirly skirts for my girls. What a delight to receive my package only the day after I ordered the fabric. If you get your order in today, Sarah has a special offer for so go here to take a peak at that before you order.

Happy Sewing!

P.S. Let me encourage you, the Lazy Days Skirt pattern is super super easy!! Give it a try!
