Merry & Bright

I’m headed on a girl’s trip in early December, so I thought I’d squeeze in some festive holiday sewing before all the madness. This one is strictly for fun! I’ve used Michael Miller Ta Dot in Raspberry, Kati Cupcake Sugar Blossom, and a red pindot knit for the skirt. This is by far my favorite skirt pattern, so it made another appearance.  It is from the Bizz Kids summer 2009 issue. I replaced the yoga style knit waistband with a quilting cotton waist and elastic.

I used knit scraps for the holly berry applique. Then, added some dimension with buttons.

I’m not bypassing Thanksgiving a bit, but it is fun to dabble in some Christmas fun a little early.
