Matching skirts

Most of the sewing I've done thus far has been for Zoe, and Maya has felt a little left out. She has been telling me for awhile that she wanted a blue skirt like the one I made for Zoe in THIS post. Obviously I haven't been in a sewing mood lately, so I've been putting it off. Today I finally decided to get to it, and Maya was super excited. She kept checking on my progress, "Is it done yet?" "Are you finished yet?" :) (For reference, I used the market skirt tutorial from MADE.)

Here is the finished project. It's mostly the same as Zoe's, but the pocket is a little different. For this skirt, the cutting part took longer because I had to calculate the right sizes and make sure I was cutting the pieces correctly. I don't have mad cutting skillz yet. ;) The sewing part, though, definitely went faster because I actually knew what I was doing. :) (No, Maya didn't get a hair cut, it's in a pony tail that's half falling out, lol). The skirt actually turned out longer than I thought it was going to be, but Maya loves it, and it's big enough that she'll be able to wear it for a long time.




My little twinnies. :)
