Date Created6th August 2019CommentsDoris Blanchard I remember well the children’s skirts which were attached to tops which were worn under jumpers. I made those for my daughter and you could make a large tuck in the top so that it could be let down, allowing for growth.
Looks like a bunch of talented children in this photo.

Barb Rodway Doris Blanchard .we had our tartan pleated skirts , attached to a white bodice . And lovely knitted jerseys, over the top. They were so warm .

Doris Blanchard Barb Rodway they looked so nice and it was such a good idea. I wore them like that and my daughter did also.
