Continuing with the
Oliver + S theme, I finished off this KCWC with two
Sunday Brunch skirts and a
Hopscotch top. The skirts (burgundy corduroy) turned out so cute, but I could not get a good photo of the girls together in them. Also, funny to note, Z's skirt is actually two sizes larger than N's. They actually have almost the same measurements, but Z needed a bigger size because of her cloth-diapered rear, whereas N is potty-trained (hooray!). I really really wanted N to wear her black knit boots with this outfit (because, how cute would that have been?), but the kid officially has a fashion sense and it had to be the blue sparkly shoes.
The Hopscotch top was super-exciting because it is my first knit item on a serger, and the first knit item I've sewn that didn't make me want to tear all my hair out. Only some. But I'm still figuring the serger out. I made a straight 3T rather than worry about fiddling with the pattern. It's a little roomy on N, but then, so are all her store-bought shirts. Excuse the filthy tights - this was after several spills off her bike. Also, I guess we're doing funny poses now :)
Okay, Natasha is looking more and more grown up. Definitely not a baby anymore. And I really like how the skirts turned out! And I am still figuring out my serger and I've had it for a while now. It's pathetic.
