A love of all things twirly ...

It's no secret that I have a love of all things twirly. The twirly skirt has been one of my favourite items to make since I started to sew. Miss B (7 years) also feels that an essential wardrobe item is definitely a skirt with a 'twirl factor.' As you no doubt guess, she does indeed have a wardrobe full, of all things twirly!

There are many patterns out there to create the ultimate twirl skirt. The very first pattern I ever used was the Josephine Twirl Skirt, then there was the Noodles & Milk Annabeth skirt. Both beautiful, simple patterns to use!

This year, along came the BOO! design twirl skirt (see below). Very similar to ones I've used in the past, but just as simple to create (with a few variations in there too).



So ... here are a few snapshots of my love for all things twirly, thus far in 2013 ....
