I was talking with my visiting teacher last month and she mentioned she sews a lot of her daughter's clothes. I told her that I was impressed since I took a sewing class a few years back and wasn't the least bit interested after.
After we talked and she left, I began thinking, maybe I should try my hand at sewing again. The hardest thing with Lillie is the fact that she is so tall and trying to find dresses/skirts that are long enough and still fit her waist, is sometimes a challenge. Although, who am I kidding since Lillie's Nana has bought the majority of her wardrobe since we got Lillie!! Ok, I guess I don't really need an excuse for wanting to try a new project.
So I wanted to start small and simple. Here's the result.

The first skirt took only a day, so I thought, why not try one more that is slightly different. Lillie's nana sent her a skirt a little while ago that Lillie LOVES! It looked simple enough, so I gave it a try.
It's far from being store quality, but Lillie loves it and that's all that matters.
