School outfits

 
   This fall we have been hit with a big change. Both kids have to start wear some sort of uniforms. That limits my creativity so so much.
    I was really disappointed with what was asked to buy. The polos shirt had such an awful fit . Look at those shoulders and is 60% poly blah blah blah. That that short ...

At first I bought her some simple polo navy shirts that were fitting better and were cotton not recycled polyester. I love the idea of recycling plastic bottles to make fabric but not for items for kids that go directly on the skin... And made 3 ruffle skirts ( that also have shorts built in underneath)  to coordinate with them and found an etsy seller to digitize the kindergarten logo for to so I can embroider the shirts:
Made 3 of this flamingo skirt with underpants ( 2 for her friends at kindergarten):
I also made a pair of pleated polka dots pants to go with the shirts:
And them some dresses and tops using navy as the base color but spicing up with a bit of color:
Also made 4 pairs of leggings to go with new dresses 3 navy and 1 yellow:
Sewed some ribbon to mark the back for kids:
Some boy tops:
