For those of you who know me, you know that I love to be creative. Most of the time that involves sewing things for my sweet Hannah. Since I don't have much time to sew during the school year, I always sew double time during the summer. For the past couple of years, I have been making Hannah some Twirly skirts. This year I found a pattern that I LOVE with a drop waist. I would give a tutorial on here but I am not very good at that so I will just attach the links that I found the patterns on. The first skirt is a drop waist twirly skirt. I got this pattern from a blog called Just Deanna. This skirt turned out so cute. I was a little unsure about the fabrics, because there is very little orange in the print fabric, but I just love it!
I loved it so much I decided I needed to make some hair accessories. I wish I could pull off a headband like that! The flower tutorial came from a blog called anniescupboards. The middle of the flower I just played around with. you could also just put a button in the middle.

Summer Sewing
So when this skirt turned out so cute, I had to make about 5 more right? They are all pretty much the same just different fun fabrics.
These hairbows didn't turn out like I wanted them to, but they are cute enough.
This pattern is a little different, it is called a three tiered skirt that I got off of kuky ideas. The tutorial is a little harder because it requires a little algebra. Very basic! The thing that is good about this one is that you can make it for any size child with a few measurements.
