Instructions
This was a simple ruffled skirt I made using 8" tall tubes (36" long strips, for a kids size 7), the top I used halter sun dress as a reference, and added the sleeves, flounce and straps so Mom wouldn't get upset with my niece trying to pull the sleeves off shoulder!Difficulty:

Basic cotton quilting material
What was your inspiration?
The great patterns from ModKids! And the desire of my six year old niece who loves all things frilly and twirly
What are you most proud of?
That I'm getting proficient at executing designs on my own. Though I still need to reference patterns, I'm gaining confidence in putting my own spin on them - beyond just embellishments like ribbon or buttons! My construction is getting better and I'm able to get great results the first (okay, maybe second) attempt!
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
This is an easy project, be creative in the details to make it your own.
