It’s hard to believe that my little baby girl turns 3 in two days! She requested a blue Lalaloopsy Birthday party with a Christmas tree.Not sure why a Christmas tree, but  whatever. I already had this cute little white tree that I bought after Christmas from Walmart.

When I was participating in Project Run and Play I made a lot of garments. Some of them were never shown. Some of them were never finished. And some of them were “junked” by me and deeply loved by others.  This little out of control bias cut skirt was one of them. The moment the girls saw it they were in love.Even though it… Keep Reading
