Clover Maxi Hack & Giveaway
Oh Clover, you have been my most recurring pdf pattern. I have made Clover Child, Clover Tween, Clover Dress add-on Child, Clover Dress add-on Tween and now Clover Dress Misses pattern. I have also hacked Clover into a top and now I want to share with you how you use the original sewing pattern and turn the Clover Dress into a maxi length dress. Below I will have measurements for all size ranges Child, Tween and Misses.
But before we get down to business, here are some maxi dress photo inspirations…
Clover as a maxi is just so dreamy!!!

-Cut your skirt according to the charts below.
-Sew the front and back skirt side seams together with a 1/2" seam allowance just as you did with the Hi Lo skirt.
-Follow the tutorial instructions just as you were sewing the Hi Lo skirt. Hem, with a 1/4", 1/4" seam allowance. So simple, right?!!

My favorite winter activity is snuggling with my family drinking hot cocoa and watching Christmas movies :D
Favorite winter activity is playing 8n the snow with Grand daughters and chill’in by the fire watching it snow ❄️❄️
Baking Holiday cookies with my Daughter and decorating our Christmas Tree.
My favorite winter activity is going to see the light shows at night. They have so many in our area and whether its driving by or getting out the car and walking around. Sometimes we just drive around the neighborhood and see the lights they’ve put up. Me and my girls love to see all the pretty light displays. Then once we are done, we get to go home and warm up with some hot chocolate and smores. YUM!!
I love the winter from behind my window, I slipped and fell very hard on the frozen sidewalk last year, so I still going to the physiotherapist.
I love the sun on the snow, the twinkling stars during a clear frosty night, the candles in the house, the Christmas tree and all the lights inside and outside.
Such a cozy festive time.
But everything at a safe distance from the sidewalk
