Buy it. Seriously, I didn't have this pattern at the top of my list, it was on my radar but I have quite an um er long list of patterns I would like and this was on there somewhere down in the middle.
Corie pulled it out when I was at her house and told me in like two sentences how to assemble the skirt so I decided to give it a go. Oh gosh I love it! It looks so complicated in the picture with the partially gathered middle of the skirt but seriously it's NO BIG DEAL! Just one little extra step on both ends of the skirt pieces and the pocket is optional. I did quite a lot to the pocket that the pattern didn't require. I added the bells, the pleat in the front of the pocket and the ruffle trim. You don't have to do any of those and it will still be darling. Put the
Farbenmix Uljana on your list! Better yet just buy it! They have it in the women's version too if you want to give it a whirl for yourself! I think you will really enjoy this pattern.
The leggings are from Sewing Clothes Kids Love. Really any legging pattern will do. I bought the knit from Corie as well but it looks as if she is out of it. If you have been looking for some
reasonably priced knits, Corie has been stocking her racks with domestic knits. You should check out what she has going on there, lots of stripes and prints. Probably the fullest collection pf knit I have seen online from an indie shop. I keep finding things I cannot live without! Gosh she needs to move farther away! Haha! (We live very close to each other. I am so blessed!)
The main skirt fabric is something I bought years ago, I think before I had kids! Wow! The trim fabrics are from Riley Blake's Christmas Candy collection. Cute cute collection. I have something else in store from that collection I hope to get to very soon!
As for the t-shirt, I just embellished a tee from Old Navy.
Okay this week is the home stretch with class parties and such. Then a nice break. I cannot wait to hang out with my kids and turn off that alarm clock!
