Even Still by Jessica Anderson
This pattern is part of The Great Skirt Adventure ebook.
It’s always darkest before the dawn and sometimes, a grey sky makes the colors of the rainbow shine the brightest. Even still, we all need a reminder sometimes, even the young at heart. This skirt reminds you that even on the grey sky days, look for the rainbow, something we can all treasure, no matter our age.
