Guess who wasn't in the mood to have pictures taken of her new skirts?
 |
| Good guess. |
My friend gave me a few of her old maxi-dresses, which easily made skirts for Little Sister with plenty left over in case I want to make myself a matching skirt or possibly summer dresses for Little Sister.
There's another one too, but I wasn't getting photos of that one today.

| No pictures, please. |
A condition of me taking any pictures at all was that she would wear this pink sweatshirt dress on her head, long-hair style.
 |
| Don't even think about removing my sweatshirt hair! |
It was a really simple skirt to make--I just cut panels out of the dress (the little ruffle between tiers was already there) and the lining, using the existing hem, and attached them to an elastic waistband using
this easy method. I made the top layer a little longer than the lining.
She did cooperate for a second and almost gave me a smile.
 |
| She wanted to try out an updo. |
Before deciding she'd rather look at the pictures than be in them...
 |
| Let me see! |

| Attack of the pink-haired monster |
 |
| Aaaaand we're done here. |
Maybe I'll get pics of the other skirt at some point too? She pretty much just wants to rotate between the two of them for her wardrobe every day. The length is a perfect compromise between the "long-long to the floor" skirts she really wants and the practical short skirts I will let her wear so that she doesn't trip on them, and it's a hard length to find in store-bought skirts.
