Secondly, I figured it was time for a bump picture. This is actually the first one I've taken. Shameful, isn't it?
I made this skirt out of fabric I bought at Mood when I went there in 2008. I made it to fit under the bump, knowing I'd wear a long (non-maternity yet!) t-shirt and sweater (not pictured) over it. I think I prefer the under the bump philosophy. We'll see as I get further along. I drafted the pattern myself from directions taken from the book Sew What Skirts. I added waaaaaay too much ease, so I had to make the back smaller and redo the zipper 3 times! Good thing I don't mind installing invisible zippers!
You're so cute! Can I please book ahead of time to babysit every third Thursday?! :)
