Reversible Bubble Pocket Top and Twirly Skirt

Friday, June 14, 2013



Ever since I've started seeing all the adorable Bubble Pocket Shorts variations appearing in the Flip The Pattern June Sew-Along Linky Party at Frances Suzanne, I've been wanting to create one myself.  And so, just for fun and NOT for competition, I've created the Bubble Pocket Top....and it's reversible!  Although, I'm already looking forward to making another one with some slight variations, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.  Since I needed something for Anja to wear with it, I drafted a little skirt called the Twirly Skirt.  Together, they're a fun combination!

  2. Super cute! Can't wait for a pattern or tutorial! I already entered one flip, but I've already finished another (just need to photograph). A jersey skirt! I wish I could grade it to my size! ;)

  6. Last night I was thinking about making another flip with your patern and I actually had the idea of making a dress that looked just like your top (just a bit longer, off course...). Now I can sew it as I already know that it will came out perfect!
    I love this outfit!

    Your flip of the flip is perfect! Wonder why we didn't though of this before - it's pretty obvious and looks perfect for any pocket lover (which is about every kid I know, lol)

  12. I want to see patterns for both of these - and with the skirt, include the option for attachable panties/bloomers (cause baby girl still needs them under all skirts and dresses and I prefer when it is all one piece - so yeah, just for me go ahead and do that ;op) Both are seriously awesome!!!
