Princess Belle Dress

I will confess.  I didn’t use any Stampin’ Up! products on this project.  Wink   But since it is one of my creations, I thought I would share it with you.

I made this dress for my granddaughter.  She wanted a Belle dress when I visited her earlier this year.  Well, after a lot of sewing, and even more thought, it is finished!!  All the thought came because I wanted her to be able to play in it without breaking the gathering threads in the upper skirt.  I finally used elastic and a very wide zig-zag stitch to make the gathers in the skirt.  It looks better with the elastic gathers than with the gathering threads.  The fabric has glitter in it, so my table, chair, and the ironing board are all covered with sparkles!  It only cost about $20 to make.  It is machine washable and dryable.  And now she can play in it without me worrying about the gathers breaking.

I hope she enjoys it!  Happy Halloween!

A beautiful princess dress
