Mom of 5 Makes Elaborate Red Pleated Skirt

🪡🧵 Come along on a hectic journey as I embark on the task of making an accordion pleated skirt, inspired by the timeless grace of the Edwardian era and 1950’s fashion. Because 5 kids, a new puppy, and launching a business weren’t enough, apparently. Am I some kind of time management supermom guru? FAR from it, as you will see on this video.

Katherine you are so gorgeous and so funny! I do the same thing! I take on a lot too and my life is like some kind of comedy skit and it really helps when you can laugh about the disasters and persevere and celebrate the victories!

It's a beautiful skirt! You did an amazing job😊

With all that going on, I wouldn't be able to concentrate or even find the time for more than a basic sewing project.

Makes me really appreciate my Mom making her clothes and for me and my sister in the 60's.

I just found your channel and I can’t stop laughing… Right in the middle of your taping your adorable little guy screams, “DIARRHEA!” No, I don’t have a poo poo fetish or anything weird like that… It’s just that as the mother of four (now adult) sons and 11 grandsons (My 12th grandchild was a pretty little girl finally) I totally understand! For some strange reason boys find any and all body functions funny. From burping to flatulence… Even “armpit farts” it’s just all hysterically funny to them. 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

You look great in your new red skirt! Very nice!

You're a creative person...your projects help you express yourself and keep you ticking along! And if you waited for the right time, you'd probably have a bunch of projects that never got started and no learning experiences and only unfulfilled dreams...😢😮😂

Super inspo. I saw the skirt in a different video and was curious about it, so looking forward. My first project was a challenge too! My little kid and I cut and handsewed a little sleeveless pattern dress with lined bodice. I was so psyched to finish it. Need to pass it on to a new kid actually.

What do you do to keep such a beautiful figure

[amberp]

You’re confused. U think u just have 5 kids, but now that u have a dog, u have 6 now. I know this, bc I’m older than u, have 5 kids & a dog who is lovingly referred to as “Baby Brother.” The struggle is real & it doesn’t get easier when they get older. Just enjoy the ride & think about how boring life would be without all of them. 😂😘❤️

Hmm get ready to do a lot of dog walking or doing a lot of cleanup from an unruly Aussie Shepherd

…….. not sure how “being a mom of 5” has anything to do with sewing…….
