Cheyenne hosts the biggest outdoor rodeo in the world. Or so they say. My parents flew out and we experienced four days at the rodeo. Between concerts, the carnival, Indian village, and slack time we saw a lot. And no rodeo would be complete without a cowgirl!
My mom and I picked out this fabric at a local quilting shop. I completely fell in love with the print the moment I saw it. Something about cowboys and little girl boots! Normally quilt shops can run a little pricey, but when making kids' clothing, you thankfully don't need much. This skirt cost about $5.50 to make.
The most amazing part? My mom made this entire skirt using only my serger. She figured out that my serger could ruffle fabric! It's a good thing I didn't spend $60 on a ruffler foot like I intended. We ruffled, added a casing, and finished the edge with my Brother 1034D. So if you have a serger bust out your books or goggle some tutorials because it is well worth it.
Tana was by far the cutest cowgirl there!
