Reversible Twirly Skirts

This Christmas, I decided I was going to sew some skirts for my nieces. I found 2 fabrics I thought the girls would love. Red for Tessa, and Blue for Natalie.
I thought about making them from some store bought patterns, but then I found this blog post... MamaMakesStuff.com

I followed the directions mostly...
I used Swedish tracing paper and followed the instructions for measurement
But decided I wanted more twirly in the twirly skirt, so I used 6 inches between the cuts instead of 3.


 Gave the pattern a seam allowance of 5/8 inch but, trust me it really didn't need it.

Then I got caught up in having the skirt lined... or better yet why not make it reversible.
HOW FUN!!!
Here's the results


Not too shabby... Can't wait to see them twirl!
