Valentine's Day Sunday & Homemade Skirts

Hope everyone is having a fab Valentines Day!

I decided at about 9 pm last night that I wanted to make Syd & I skirts for Valentines day. So I scraped together some fabric & used this tutorial, I mentioned before, to make them.

Syd loved her skirt & Berto got to rock his cool tie Grandma made him. She has made him one for each holiday & this was his Valentine's Day one. Skulls, roses, & blood- he LOVES it.

    You are amazing! The skirts turned out so cute! My hubby makes fun of me because I want to match (or look like we might match) with the kiddo's.
    Love the skirts!

    Brooke- I'm not really a matchy person but it ended up not TOO matchy, & cute.

    Kristie- Ah, you're nice. Valentines Day is one of those holidays where you can match or be cheesey and it's okay!

    Sandi- Oh, glad you like it! It's actually at the Tabernacle in Provo. We had Stake Conference there today.

    Oh. My. Gosh. You just whipped these things out? My goal this year is to sew something every month so I can get better at it.
