Little ones grow up so fast! Our grand princess recently turned THREE years old!
It was just the other day that I was making sweet little dresses for her mom. She would prance into the living room and tell her grandpa, "See Papa! I'm pretty!" Well, this year I finally made this little bundle of attitude and adorableness a dress of her very own. I've made a few for her, but this one is FLUFFY! Full of ruffles! We also made her some little antenna hair bows and a ribbon wand (which she delightedly "stung" her uncles with) and bought her some little wings. She was cuteness overload and she knew it! |
After posting a bit about my plan for the dress, applique pockets and all... a subscriber asked if I would be posting how I actually make the little franken-dress.
THREE patterns were used for this dress, in size THREE for the grand-princess turned THREE!

- Pocket and Bee applique: Blooming Baby Boutique from K.P. Kids & Co.
Here is the playlist of videos from my cRaZy escapade into franken-dress making. It was a lot of fun and well worth all the time and frustration to see her flitting around in all those ruffles!

Let me know what you think of my shenanigans.
What should I try next? I'm thinking matching outfits for her and her two-year-old cousin, Mr. Sweetness, would be a lot of fun. Maybe frogs?
