Mary Reed said... This is GREAT!!! The skirts are very cute, very Juicy. I love that the girls could deconstruct the pattern. I have a preteen and she is beginning to want high priced fashion. I am going to show her this review; hopefully, she will begin to look at fashion as something she can create! Great job, fabulous skirts. 3/6/04 4:27 PM

Never occurred to me to use sweatshirt fabric. The NM pattern is longer but could easily be made shorter. 3/6/04 5:24 PM
