Patterns by Figgy’s: Ella’s Bubble Bottom Skirt
From the pattern cover:
What a joy childhood can be! She can jump in a puddle and not worry about her shoes, fly high into the sky on the swings without fear, and twirl around and around until she falls down with laughter. Designing this skirt reminded me of all the fun I had as a little girl. It is my hope that all little girls out in the big world experience years upon years of joyful childhood, too. Take your machine out of the closet and let’s sew a little skirt for little girls to twirl in ...and to remind ourselves how that feels. Happy sewing, Seamsters!
