It wasn't a total success, I tried to scale down the size a little because the tutorial was for a 5/6 year old. Well it ended up only just fitting around the waist and is much shorter than it should be, so I think the next time I make it I will make it as shown and just bring the waist in a little.
It was only ever meant to be a little summer, playing in the garden skirt, (especially after it went a bit wrong) but K was soooooo excited to see it this morning and wanted to wear it to the cinema, so she wore it with her cosy tights and boots.
For the record, if I ever, EVER mention I am going to use the check fabric for any other project. Please remind me that it almost made me want to jump off the roof, because I can guarantee that by the time the skirt has been washed once, there will be more of that fabric frayed than there is left stitched to the flowered stuff.
It . was . a . nightmare .
