I remember the twirl. Wearing my favorite dress or skirt and twirling around and around on our front lawn. I always looked down watching the fabric swirl around in the air. When the twirl stopped I would crumple to the ground and watch the world twirl around ME. I love that!
Recently, I had the joy of making my first twirl dress for a special little girl, Ashli. It was fun watching it come together and every once in a while I would twirl it on the hanger to make sure there was enough ''lift" and to my delight it floated...
The dress skirt took over 100 squares of 8 different fabrics and the gathering of those squares...well...took some deep breathing. But it was worth it!
Ashli twirls and twirls in her dress and looks beautiful.
I don't twirl anymore...but maybe I should...
