I made these skirts a few months back but since we've had such a cold and rainy spring, they have not seen the light of day (the skirts that is). So, since we had a warm spot in there last week, we decided to go do a mini photo shoot. We took advantage of the warm sunshine and the boys being in school and took a little drive. We found this cool abandoned gated up property (with a no trespassing sign, of course) that we snuck on to and grabbed a few shots. Wild style. Here's some of my faves. And my biggest fear? No, it was not getting caught (I'm sure the authorities wouldn't mind us taking a few pics right?), but running into a snake.
I love the brightness of the fabric and how it just pops. (hence the name pop garden by Heather Bailey) The skirt is a free tutorial from the Polka Dot Chair. Happy Monday!

I made my daughter a skirt and top out of this line- actually, the exact one that Heather Bailey had on her blog. Too cute!

I saw your skirts posted on the Polka Dot Chair blog, and I must say thatyour skirts (and your daughters) are darling! I love that fabric. I keep buying one more and one more piece of it because I am worried that someday I'll need more and won't be able to get it!

Thanks ladies! I love Heather's fabrics so much -in case you couldn't tell ;). I'm like you Melissa. When budget permits or I see a great sale I keep buying my faves.

Did you make the headband too? Any tips? I am crafty but can't sew to save my life! But I'd love to learn how to make those cute rosette headbands!
