The Scout Skirt-a fantastic knockoff

I am admittedly slow when in comes to trends and being the cool kid. I am WAY behind the times. For instance, although I really love Mary Englebriet's stuff, I had no idea she had a magazine until last summer. [sadly the magazine is now out of print.]

After reading the summer issue, I had to make and do EVERYTHING in it... including becoming Heather Bailey. Honestly, I was instantly in love with her. Due to this love affair, I follow her blog religiously, and recently found this.

Although my bugdet would not allow her fabrics (she even designs them ), I found a few scraps for Sunday attire and gave it a shot. It may not be Heather Bailey, but Scout sure doesn't care.
[This post's for you Mammasita. You asked, I delivered.]
