Victoria and I went to Hobby Lobby and bought patterns. I bought the fabric for her. I want to change up my pattern some. (A non-sewer wants to change the pattern. My poor friend.) But, I will buy fabric for myself when I talk to my friend and find out what I need. She is on vacation in Mexico right now, so I have to wait for her to return. I'm really excited! The only thing I've ever sewn was at a fun summer sewing class, and I made a couple of purses. (I love my purses! They are so cute!) Actually, I did add length to Victoria's Tinkerbell skirt three years ago with the help of another friend. I ordered this from the UK, but it was too short and was not a leotard so she'd have been showing everything she had if the wind blew just right. So, I bought some fabric and added an additional skirt that was longer and went underneath the original costume. I was proud of myself. I also made her hair decor. So, I guess I have sewed something.
Here you can see her hair "scrunchie." You can see the place where the original costume stops. It is that first layer. It is a mighty short skirt to not have a leotard with it.
And here is the full costume. I added the puffballs to her shoes, too. They were actually "snowball" Christmas ornaments that I agreed to part with for the sake of cute shoes.
I just like this picture of my sweet daughter.
Hopefully, we'll be able to get started with the costumes very soon.
