School Wardrobe
Butterfly Skirt - Finished!
I finished up the butterfly skirt, which was pretty easy. The ruffles needed to be attached - the bottom one was gathered and sewn to the bottom of the skirt base. The upper ruffle was gathered at attached at the lines I had drawn on the skirt, as per the pattern.
After that, it was an easy matter to attach the waist casing, insert the elastic and finish it.
This was a really easy skirt and she's happy with it! That is it for the school wardrobe, until maybe sometime this winter. I usually make her a few things over the winter as she outgrows or wears out old pieces.
Parting Shot: In the Bag. My son got a bag from the local library for reading a required amount of books and Wellie has already claimed it.

Very cute outfit. That pattern is perfect for the cute fabric. Your daughter made some nice choices.
Very cute. I love this color on your daughter. Pretty cute earings she's sporting too!
Very pretty. Butterflys seem to be around a lot on fashion at the moment.
Congrats on finishing your daughter's school wardrobe. I've been following along every summer for inspiration for my daughter's school wardrobe.
I finished one dress last night and hope to finish a top from the same pattern tonight.
The blue butterflies remind me of the rare El Segundo Blue butterfly.
