Hoe Down!


My biggest monster Sophie had the Kindy Hoe Down last Friday.......The most exciting thing ever!

We had a couple of weeks warning about this & Soph was super excited about being a cowgirl...but we had nothing for her to wear!

Luckily I had an old pair of jeans that no longer fitted me so we created an outfit.
The skirt is made from the knee down of the jeans & the vest is made from the thigh area of the jeans.....I don't have a pattern but if anyone is interested I can make a tutorial.



I added some little fabric squares (some horse fabric that Sophie had picked out) and also made a little bandana out of this.

The hat was courtesy of my wardrobe (amazing what a bendy sunhat can do!).

Sophie kept her outfit a secret until the Hoe Down and she had an excellent time being a cool cowgirl!
