Bragging Rights

As usual, I have to brag about my little Chloe....




She was such a great physical therapy patient this morning.
She sat on that swing like it was nobody's business, mmm hmmm.
AND - she looked extra cute in this little sweater dress!


THEN....


Brace yourselves for a visual treat....



I made this skirt for Chloe to wear to Thanksgiving dinner!
Isn't it fabulous!?!?!
I have to admit, it is fabulous.


My mom was there, guiding me on how to use the sewing machine (bless her soul). But honest, I did every stitch on the skirt! Mmmmm hmmmmm!

Question though....

Should I add some sort of trim to the bottom or leave as is? In some ways, I think some brown pom-pom or tassel fringe would be really fun and cute, but then I think it might just take away from the skirt or be too busy.

What do you think???

Super cool skirt! Great job Mom!!!! See? Sewing isn't hard!!

I would leave it as is though. Time to move on to your NEXT crafty project!

Wow. You never cease to amaze with your talents. I love the skirt.

I love that stinkin' cute skirt, holy crap! I think I might add a little tassle on the bottom just because I like a little extra bling bling. And if you put it with a simple shirt the whole skirt will just stand out and be amazing but not too busy.

Yay for Chloe! That is SO dang cute! I think a solid brown lining at the bottom would be darling.

That skirt is soooo adorable! It would look cute it you added something, but it doesn't need it! When I first looked at it {before your "should I add something" question} I didn't think it needed anything extra.... I just thought, what a fun adorable skirt! :o)

Chloe is a cutie pie as always!

Mindy said...

Oh man that is the cutest skirt!! Can you make me one =) Somehow I don't think it would look as cute on me as it will look on little Miss Chloe!

I think you should leave it for now. You can always add something later if you just HAVE to, but I think it's totally cute just the way it is!!

I love that skirt!! I was thinking a satin type trim (brown) would be cute and then a bow at the side? Just an idea, but like everyone else it looks cute the way it is!!! Good job!
