Thanks Homespun!
I finished the twirly skirts for the girls and I think they are happy with them. They looked happy twirling around the lawn this afternoon.
The skirts seemed to take forever - a lot longer than my normal version which involves a hem and some elastic.Amelia was desperate to use this pink and red spot fabric so I whipped up some frilly pants. Much quicker than the skirts.

Congratulations! The plattys are so cute and you're published too! Darling skirts for darling little ones.
Congratulations on the magazine article! Those skirts are just lovely. As is the baby surprise jacket you posted yesterday. You must have some of the best dressed children I've seen!

I will pop in this morning to see if they have it at our newsagency. I always buy that mag, full of wonderful ideas. I love both the skirts but those pants are just utterly adorable.
Congratulations! I'll go look for the magazine today. I love the color combinations of the skirts - I wish I had girls.

Ooo! Quick! Must rush out to see you in Homespun! You are so clever! Love the skirts and the pants. It is amazing how much time frills add to things!
Congratulations on having the pattern featured. I'll have to fine somewhere close to home that stocks homespun.
Congratulations Kate! Your patterns are so worthy of getting published!
Congratulations Kate, I'm off to buy it tomorrow. I'm so far behind with my sewing, magazines, blogging etc. The girls skirts look fantastic, of course they would have take forever.....
Hi Kate, it's Corina in New Jersey. I kind of left you hanging...things went a little crazy (and still are). I last asked you what colours your girls liked and how you ever managed to get sewing done with twins (let alone a new baby as well!!!). Well what a difference 4-6 months makes... My girls were the pink and yellow team. And then Kitty declared an undying love for GWEEN (more of an obsession actually). So now when shopping/sewing all "gween" belongs to Nikita whilst Trinity gets every other colour by default! And now they let me sew without constantly touching all my stuff...it is a miracle! I actually was able to sew some stuff for the house and for Christmas..I almost feel like a whole person again. Thank you for the continued inspiration on your blog...gorgeous work and awesome juggling!
Wonderful article and wonderful sewing Kate. I must admit this is the first time I have seen your work, but I am hooked. I am heading for my material stash now ... I too live in the southwest of WA and believe summer is now here!!!
Congratulations Kate. Great article and great layout. The skirts are so cute and who could resist the platypus? Take care,
valarie
Hi Kate. I just wanted to congratulate you on such a nice pattern for "Pippa, Polly and Penny". As soon as I saw the pattern in Homespun, I knew it would make the perfect gift for my little Goddaughter. I've posted a picture on my blog http://www.visionhandbags.typepad.com. I'm really enjoying reading your blog - what lovely things you make.
wow Kate that's great to be published! I keep telling myself I won't buy anymore magazines but I 'll have to buy just this one more!!!!!
Congratulations Kate! The magazine looks fabulous and so do your gorgeous girls! I have just read all your posts and seems like you have had a great summer!
the skirts and pants on your girls are so adorable. you are a marvel! thank you for sharing.
Congrats on your article published Kate! That is an amazing achievment! The girls skirts look so cute. I hope you guys are all safe and sound after the fires in Bridgetown. Thinking of you all.
Love Lee-Anne
