And I adore it!
I purchased the pattern here and added a few inches for the colder weather that's coming. It was really simple to make, although I quirked it enough for you and me. The bag??? Oh. I got it at Target. Isn't it adorable? The sweater is an incredible sale buy from Lands' End Canvas. It makes for the most comfortable fall outfit yet. (Although my mommy, sisters and me are working on more such outfits!)
While I'm writing this post, my Nan, Paps, and sisters are headed home after a long, fun and busy weekend at Quilt Market. (I'll try and persuade them to share pictures!) I can't wait to hug them to pieces.
love- Abi
Thank you for sharing! You know, I just don't think of doing that - I mean, buying a short skirt or dress pattern with the idea of lengthening it. I look at it and think, it's too short - it's not for me. I need to think outside that box!

Cute, cute skirt! I love the length, too! Right now, though, I can only do elastic waists for my brand-new-post-baby tummy. :-) I also like the shoes!!

That was exactly what I was looking for. You have done a wonderful job communicating your message. Keep up the good work.

It's a lovely skirt pattern! I would be tempted to make one myself, if I didn't live in inordinate dread of sewing buttonholes.
