PTR Sour Apple Skirt

Here is The Sour Apple Skirt that I made for my last Project Toddler Runway challenge! Believe me, I almost scrapped this one because it wasn't turning out at all the way I had planned. Instead of just giving up, I decided to email a few pics to Creative Momma D to get her opinion. She gave me a few suggestions and saved me from having to start all over! Phew! After a few alterations, it actually turned out really cute! There will be more of these in the future.....after a nice long break from sewing!
The Sour Apple: This skirt is a fun one because it looks just like an apple. The waistband and bottom layer are made from satin crepe, the middle layer is a thin shimmery tulle and the top layer is chiffon. The chiffon, which drapes nicely, parts in the front to show the texture of the different layers. The shirt is just a t-shirt that I added a felt apple applique to and it compliments the skirt. The headband is elastic, with 2 layers of ribbon, a ribbon flower and a white stud. She can also get away with wearing this for St. Patrick's Day. I love when things work out like that! Today we're partying over at:

    Aww that is fun, totally girly, and soft. I love the color, and it's a nice break from the typical pink, however i think my girl would probably still take pink any day, if she had the choice, lol.

    I'm glad you didn't give up, it turned out fantastic.
