Butterfly skirt

I’ve almost completed this very full, fine-wale corduroy skirt for Miss Clare.  It just needs the waist elastic adjusted properly.  She does love her skirts!

I have enough fabric left to make a matching jacket (I hope).  It’s going to be a pretty loud combination!  But it does contain most of Clare’s favourite things – it’s a skirt, it’s twirly, it has an elastic waist (easy for her to wear on her hips – she’s only four but pulls all her skirts and pants down to below her tummy), is covered in butterflies, and is made up of all her favourite colours!  What more could a little girl want!  I’ll post a photo of her in the entire ensemble once it is complete.
