The Girly Skirt

Back in high school, I took a class for four years called Fashion & Designing. I absolutely loved it. Each year I got better and better at sewing. My senior year of high school (my final project) I had to design and make prom dresses, and then we had to put together a fashion show for the whole school to showcase our work. I wish I had photos of the dresses I made. They were beautiful. I donated them to a couple girls that couldn't afford dresses. It was so much fun. I thought about going to FIT (Fashion Institute of Technology) in NYC, but, went to cosmetology school instead.
Lately, I decided that I wanted to start sewing clothes again using patterns. I haven't done that in about 15 years.  So I did. It was refreshing. I made these outfits for some of my friends and families little girls for their birthday. I got the skirt pattern from Pink Fig
The pattern is called the Girly Skirt. The tops were bought at a store and I cut out the the letter out in material and used no sew adhesive to attach the letter or number onto the shirt.
I can't wait to start more cute projects.
