Double the Fun!

I have a friend, Sarah.

She is a SUPER mom with 6 kids from 8 years down to 1 year of age. The youngest are twins. PHEW!

P.S. She looks fabulous and also does my graphic design.

The twins turned 1 this past week.

Hooray!

Sarah asked me to make them something special to wear to their party.

Question: What theme do you do for a birthday party for twins who

are children # 5 and 6?

I was inspired by this adorable little guy that I found on Etsy.

He is made by Contemori. The whole shop is adorable.

Can you tell where I am going with this?

Step right up for the greatest show on Earth, the…

Circus

Sarah and I had a good laugh about this theme being so fitting.

I used a color palette of turquoise blue, raspberry red, and black and white.

I mixed different prints from Tina Givens, Michael Miller, and basic stripes and dots.

I did an appliqued onesie for each of them. Parley had a bowtie and suspenders with a boutonniere.

Veda had a pretty cake a top a pedestal, decorated with flowers and the #1.

I also made a special skirt for Veda.

It is a two tier skirt.

The top layer is waistband and strip work skirt finished with a ruffle.

The second tier is an underskirt finished with a double ruffle.

It features a cotton stripe and a tulle layer that alternates color.

It was very full and whimsical and FUN! As my dear friend Eva puts it,

“trim, trim, dripping with trim”

Are you ready?

We added bands and medallions to the top hats.

These were a joy to create!

Happy Birthday

to 2 little ones

who round out a beautiful family!
