Maia's little friend Elsie is turning two this week and her mum requested a birthday outfit using my Lil Kingdom fabric. It's adorable:
A matching peasant top will follow, and then Elsie can celebrate not only another year, but the title of Girliest Outfit Ever.
Have I mentioned how time consuming tutu pettiskirts are? Making one takes longer than a coat does. I must get a ruffling foot.
This one has five underskirts, including a satin one right next to her little legs.
I'll post the tutorial tomorrow!
So pretty!!! I'm awaiting the tutorial! My princess NEEDS a pettiskirt (and maybe I can figure out my ruffler...)
ReplyDeleteI have a ruffling foot and a love/hate relationship with it. It's awesome when it works. But it's a temperamental little bugger.
ReplyDeleteVERY cute skirt.
ow that is one PINK skirt! oh and super super cute too *pines for a little girl to dress*
ReplyDeleteAw, that's so cute!
ReplyDeleteI have a ruffler foot, but it's 50/50 whether it actually saves me any time overall. I'm with auntninn on them; when they're good, they're very, very good but when they're bad they're a complete and total pain in the arse.
I know what you mean about tutu skirts. When I made my daughters first tutu for ballet it took 54metres of net. How I ever got it under the machine I'll never know, but she did look fab in it!
ReplyDeleteIt looks wonderful - and it's fabulous colour. I shudder to think about the amount of work, though...
ReplyDeleteWhat a great colourful skirt. Every girl would feel like a princess in that one, I think!
ReplyDeleteI have a ruffler foot. But somehow I didn't really figure it out yet. I look at it sometimes, want to try it out, but then I want to hurry up and finish what I am working on and decide it will go faster if I do it by hand, like I always do. So silly. I guess I have to find a tutorial for the thing sometime and really should start working with it.
