Since I've been in the mood to try new things lately - small sewing challenges to myself - I thought I'd try making something different for my little girl. So I thought - how about a bubble skirt? Do you ever get stuck on making the same things over and over? I had been making my little girl dresses lately and I could dress her in sweet dresses everyday! So...to mix things up a bit she needed this bubble skirt! And I needed a new challenge. :)
I came across this tutorial: http://getyourcrafton.blogspot.com/2009/12/rooty-tute-tuesday-bubble-skirt.html and gave it a try.
This was, I have to say, a quick sewing project which I love! It took about 30 minutes - so I will definitely be making plenty more! I already bought some striped corduroy to make another one.
Here's another tutorial for a reversible bubble skirt: http://sewhipmama.wordpress.com/2010/01/26/the-bubble-skirt-tutorial/

Thanks for stopping by my blog and inviting me over! I had fun looking around!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by earlier, I think the little strawberry pattern would look great on your little girl! I agree the button at the back is a super easy way of fastening the opening, just a loop and a button and if the opening isn't big enough, just undo a bit of the back seam to make it fit. Easy peasy. LOL!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and inviting me to link up. You've got some really cute things here. I'm gonna look around some more. :)
