The Be Inspired Skirt by Ellie and Mac is every little girl's dream of the perfect mermaid tail. This skirt and shirt was made as a present for one of her best friends. Thankfully she's the same size! The Be Inspired is a great pedal skirt. And, while it gives the illusion of a mermaid, the actual pencil skirt isn't so long that she can't move in it. In fact, we had a hard time getting her to stop moving and dancing in it so we could take pictures! She kept dancing and twirling and loves it so much that she has asked for one for herself. It's a good thing it's already started! The pedals were really easy to cut out, and the fact that you don't have to hem them makes them perfect! The tutorial on how to gather them is great and easy to follow. Then, when it comes time to attaching everything else together, including the shorties under the skirt the sewing goes really smooth! Did I mention those shorties?!?! F
