When I saw a tester call for a twirly skirt, well, how could I not apply? 😉

Lauren from Sew by Pattern Pieces had something to celebrate (1000 2000 followers on her Facebook page!) and decided to give away a free pattern to her followers. But first the skirt needed to be tested. So a bunch of lovely ladies started to sew and made their daughters happy. Or themselves, since it’s a Mummy and me pattern, yay! It is a comfortable full circle skirt that is so versatile you can choose to wear it during the day as a casual skirt to get around in (and the kiddo’s: twirl around at the playground!), to work or even jazz it up to go out to dinner.

After printing and assembling the pattern, I asked Isabella what kind of fabric she would love for this skirt…. This time no fancy fabric, just a lovely green knit we bought a while ago at our local market here in Eindhoven. At that time she was already very clear that she loved that color, emerald green.

So an emerald green swirly skirt was born… Isabella could not stop twirling! Since then, it has been washed and washed, so that’s a good sign, right?
