Very Hungry Carlypillar skirts

May 9, 2011 Carly Findlay 16 Comments

A few weeks ago I wrote about the Very Hungry Carlypillar skirts Bec was making me. On Sunday I went to her place to pick them up. I LOVE them 🙂

This one features the fruit the caterpillar ate through. The healthy skirt.

I love the different coloured fruit against the blue spots.

 So pretty. And very versatile.

 The next one is my favourite of the two. It’s the unhealthy skirt.

 

 I really like how the pale blue material matches the foods so well especially the lollypop and cupcake.

 And I love that the blouse I wore went well with the skirt.

Thank you Bec – I am so proud to have these skirts that no one else will! And I am so glad you enjoyed sewing them.

Bec also sewed me the Ikea dress but it needed some alteration (it was too big for me – a nice problem to have!). Here’s a sneak peek.

The dress is divine. So elegant and a lovely floral. A girl I work with did tell me she has the bedspread on her bed now!!

    I am so in love with the Caterpillar skirt. I think I have a pair of shoes that would love it too. I can see them forming a beautiful friendship.

    Love the skirts. They look great.
    Imagine if I wore on of those skirts to work as a Kinder teacher… perhaps I could claim a tax deduction on them!
