KCWC: baby circle skirts


More KCWC clothes!! (I've got more coming, too...I may (a teensy bit) be going through my nesting phase....)

I also whipped up some teeny tiny baby circle skirts yesterday....These took hardly any time at all. The only thing that slowed me down was a power outage. In the middle of hemming. In the afternoon. ??? Whatevs at least it only lasted an hour or so....It was cutting into nap time. (aka most precious time of the day)

Though it did force me to clean up the floor in my sewing room and cut out a few more projects, so it wasn't a total loss. I used Dana's tutorial and pattern for these, and of course it was fabulous!



The top fabric is from my sponsor My Fabric Store-from the Birch Storyboek line.

Middle fabric is Joel Dewberry, from the Heirloom line.

Bottom fabric is vintage reproduction from Etsy purchased a meellion years ago. (Ok I may be exaggerating.)



I also used some of the selvage from the JD fabric as a tag on the elastic, and some ribbon for the other two...I love how this looks. So easy but a fun little touch.

I've been wanting to do these, can you tell me what size elastic you used for the waistband? They're super adorable!

Cute! And the selvedge tag is very clever.
You are lucky that you have a nesting phase... I didn't with either of my kids, but I really wanted that extra burst of energy and inspiration.

I've made several of these for friends and they are so much fun & so easy. I love the fabrics you chose and the selvage as tags - very clever.

These are so cute! Love the fabric choices. I'm doing a round-up post of some of my favorites from the KCWC flickr pool and I'd love to feature yours using the photo from the flickr pool and a link back to your blog post if that's okay with you!
