Tiered Ruffle Skirt

Okay, okay...I previously mentioned that I likely wouldn't post anymore crafty stuff on this blog, but this is so blog worthy. I sewed my first article of clothing yesterday- a skirt for Macy to match her cupcake onesie. For those of you who know me well, who woulda thought I would ever be SEWING???!!?!??? I thought I would be able to finish the skirt during Macy's long morning nap, but it ended up taking me several hours off and on all day long! After much frustration and lots of patience (which I need to work on, btw) I was happily surprised with the final outcome.

That is way cute! I know how to sew but I don't think I could tackle something like that! I stick with curtains and valences! HA! So cute!
