Cord skirt

She won't wear the dress, but apparently the skirt is good...

...for 'scootering'.

I made it with the leftover corduroy material, during an episode of Play School today. Liv sat beside me, her little legs swinging back and forth, sticking pins into a skirt waiting for a ruffle (which is her version of 'sewing'). She kept me informed of her progress, giving me a running commentary... 'Yellow pin here.... red pin there.... Now I need a blue pin, Mum'. Every single pin had its precise place and she turned it around, and over, making sure she hadn't missed a spot. But then she asked for her scizzors! That was when she was given the very important job of sorting all my buttons. Disaster averted!
