Ivory Mini-Petti

Newest creation: Ivory "vintage lace" and chiffon over a fluffy layer of nylon chiffon. The top layer of lace and nylon chiffon is from a slip. This is a mini-pettiskirt so it is shorter and intended to go over leggings, pants or shorts. It is a size 2T/3T. I am selling this one for $45.

New Fabric Order!!!

I just ordered more fabric for my skirts. I cannot wait until it comes in! I have so many ideas to get started on and 2 more skirts for my nieces (black with candy pink ruffle fluff). My daughter will be getting another skirt (of course!). I am also starting to make extra skirts for the Robbinsdale Craft and Bake sale on May 9. The hardest part for me is refraining from making only skirts for my daughter!

Here is the color chart from the company that I order fabric from. They have a new brown color that is not listed. I ordered it so we will see. I also ordered a bright purple color that is not on here. I am so excited! :)

Too cute!

I finished this all black skirt for my daughter. I absolutely love it. I like the solid black- it goes with just about anything. We had her in light pink pants and top the other day at Target. We got so many stares and "Ooohh's" and "Aaaahhh's"! Several of the ladies shopping stopped to talk about how cute she was. I just love these skirts!

For my niece

I made this skirt for my niece in Colorado. I know she will love it!! I just shipped it yesterday priority mail so she should get it tomorrow or the next day. I cannot wait to see it on her!!!

Hot pink and yellow. The picture on the right is from underneath. Look at all the ruffles!!!

Happy New Year!

Here it is a new year already. I think I was ready for a new year, too much drama in 2008. New Years eve. Did I go out? Nah. Joe is working so the kids and I watched Shrek on tv. It always seems that I make popcorn to have with movies ONLY on the days that I have already vacuumed. Not a big deal, just funny.

I stayed up and finished a black and blue pettiskirt. SO cute! I love it!! I hope the little one that I made it for loves it as well. I am sure she will.

I just had to put a picture from the bottom; look at all those ruffles!! What girl wouldn't have fun wearing this!

Off to bed. Happy New Year!!!

So busy, but so worth it!

I cannot believe how busy I have been making pettiskirts!

I finished the 3 for my sister in law. They are pink with rainbow trim (purple, yellow and light blue). The skirts are now living in Atlanta being thoroughly enjoyed by 3 little girls.

Then I made a light pink one (extra full!!) for my friends cousins daughter. Now that one was hard to let go! It was so beautiful.

Right now I am finishing 2 skirts for one cousin. The colors are pink with red ruffles and orchid with pink ruffles. They are so cute! I think I like the pink with red one better. I still have to put the ribbon and elastic in so they look kind of funny.

I should be able to finish up tonight. I am almost done with my other cousins skirt. I like it! Black with light blue ruffles. It is cute! As soon as I get the ruffles finished I will post the pic.

I finished it!

Yeah me! I stayed up late the past couple of nights and finished her skirt. It is too cute!! Now I really have to start on my "order" for 3 skirts. I have the material and it will be fun. Tonight I shall begin. They will be very cute: pink with the bottom orchid, light blue and yellow. Too cute!

We are off to grandmas. She made a paint shirt for "A" for school (which starts tomorrow- WHOO HOO!!!!!). What will I do with my time? Ha ha. Anything I want! Okay, off to the shower.
