This skirt was fun to make because it started out as this charm pack of 5" squares 
and turned into this
A serger made this quick work (I would never try this without a serger--too much work).
Since LA is a small 2 year old, I cut down the squares to 4" prior to sewing so that I would be able to showcase more patterns on her small frame.
After serging each row, I topstitched along the seam to add that "extra" touch that helps take it from "home"made to "hand"made.
I embellished a cheap from Walmart with a yo-yo flower and a little hand embroidery to make the outfit complete.
All that is needed is a cute pair of bloomers to hide the diaper and this outfit is done! I just need to decide if I want to go with a cute embroidered bloomer or make one to match the skirt. Decisions, decisions!
