Twirly Girl


My daughter absolutely loves to twirl so I made her this skirt. Of course, as with everything, because I was so excited about it she was not interested. So, it sat on my table for a month waiting for a final piece of lace. When it was finally done she decided, well, it is a skirt after all.
Now she loves it. Otherwise it would have ended up on Etsy. Perhaps Ill make some more. Who doesn't like to twirl? If you like the skirt it would be great to know what sizes people would be interested in buying.
It would also be interested to know for another reason. I have this theory that everything cute out there is made for little little girls and that for some reason people don't spend as much time buying this kind of cute stuff for girls over 5. One of the local shops I frequent recently told me she quit carrying clothes over size 5 since it wasn't selling. Would love to hear other people's theory and if they would want this skirt in a size, say 7/8?

My niece has begged for one of these skirts up until around 9 or 10. But. She is homeschooled and I think therefore less influenced by what all the other girls are into. It is only natural for a girl to want a twirly skirt! I would expect more sales in the 4/5 age range though. Did you use a pattern for this or an online tutorial?
