A simple gathered skirt on an elastic waistband can turn out to be a real eye catcher, don't you think?
🧵
The fabric is a remnant of a dress I made for a friend. She told me I could use it to make sth for Miss Midi. So I finally did 😇
🧵
As it turned out, the length of this fabric remnant was spot on and I had twice her waist in total width. Perfect piece for a gathered skirt, right?

Miss Midi asked and Miss Midi got... a new dress 😊
✂️
2 summers ago I made my first Issie top pattern, trying to hack it into a dress on Miss Midi's request. It didn't turn out quite as beautiful, it looked more like a nightgown instead of a real dress 🤨
So I wanted to give this another try ever since and I must say: mission accomplished 🤩
✂️
I used the Issie top pattern as a base, cut size 8 years with the Rose collar and added a gathered skirt.
📝Note to self: a LOT of fabric makes for beautiful gathered skirts 🤓
To add a little more excitement I decided to cut the hem into a high-low one.
To conclude: I'm quite proud of this dress and I'm hoping she might wear it longer than 1 year 😇

Pattern: Issie top @sewpony with Rose collar @sewitcurly
Fabric: Mies & Moos Ballerina blue glitter jersey @stoffenfeest ; red velvet from my stash for the collar
