Shannon! It came today and it's BEAUTIFUL! Wow, you did such a nice job.

I have to admit to you, I was a little nervous. Iris unexpectedly potty trained two weeks ago and I was scared to tell you after all the work you've done. We still use our wool every day (actually more now than ever- it's so perfect for potty misses in public places) and this skirty will get tons of love, but I didn't want to say anything until I'd tried it on her and knew it would still work for us.
Even with just training pants, it's a perfect fit with a little room to grow. Sooooo wonderful and soft. Iris didn't mind wearing it one bit! I did roll the waistband to shorten the rise for her (I never would have forsaw the potty training, or the need for a short rise after all) but other than that, it's really, really lovely.
Thank you so very much. <3

I took some photos and have them up on Facebook right now- let me know if for some reason you can't see them and I'll fix the kinks. If you'd like to use any of them in promoting yourself/your shop, feel free. I can give you larger, higher quality files if you need them.

PS- if you do this colorway again, it should be called "sidewalk chalk"- see how perfectly those colors match the chalk Iris was playing with? Love it!

That's a great idea - I was thinking of doing the same colorway with asphalt gray instead of brown, so that would be a perfect name!

Oh, that sounds perfect! Glad you liked the suggestion. ;)

She looks so cute in it! I'm glad it fits despite the potty training (lucky you, by the way). But she'll have room to grow, and still be able to wear it even without a diaper. :)

Thanks so much for posting the pictures! And enjoy it!

I am forseeing her wearing this for a very long time. And so many compliments already! Thanks again.
