I am so excited to participate today on the Lily fabric tour for Penny Rose Fabrics. I had so much fun sewing up this scalloped skirt, mini tote and darling fabric banner using the pink and yellow colorways that I was provided by Penny Rose Fabrics. The first thing I thought of when I saw this fabric was pink lemonade. It’s just so happy and bright.
It was almost exactly 6 years ago that I first published this skirt tutorial. I love the full scallops and the bell-like look of the skirt. Please bear in mind this was one of my first tutorials and the pictures are tiny- if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask me! We still have that first skirt I made and it has held up beautifully. The skirt will fit from 2-4T just by adjusting the elastic in the waist. I couldn’t resist making this for my sweet little almost 2 year old. It will be her Easter dress for church. This plaid is just so great!
I knew I needed to make up a mini tote for her, this little girl LOVES her totes. I wanted to make it special, so I added one of these dimensional flowers. I just love how it pops off the tote.
I wanted to create a little banner backdrop for these pictures and had the thought to add some of these fun flowers to the banner as well.
I love how the flowers add dimension and a bit of saturated color to these light, springy pennants. The pennants measure about 4″ X 5″ and for this size of flower, I used short strips of 1″ and 3/4″ widths to create the flowers. I am excited to add it to my spring decorations.
Someone else is so excited she can’t stop dancing! 🙂 If you have any questions- please don’t hesitate to ask! Happy Spring Everyone!
