Happiest Place on Earth...

We went to Disneyland a few weeks ago and no trip to Disneyland for a little girl is complete without some fancy outfits! :)

The first day she sported the full on princess dress my mom made for her and my niece.

This was hilarious, they were comparing their dresses while waiting in line.  The conversation with hysterical!

And note to self- do not wait until the end of the day to take pictures of the princess diva's together. :)

The second day she wore her Minnie Mouse outfit which I made using Dana's Circle Skirt tutorial.  I changed things up a little bit and added a second layer using cotton and tulle on the bottom to make it more Disney-ish.  And seriously did she not get the memo?! It's supposed to be the happiest place on earth! ;)

Spring Tiered Dress... Everything looks better at the beach!

With spring just around the corner, I've been sewing away for the little Halster.  So many fun dresses and skirts!  But sadly since moving to the PNW, it's not so springy out and I haven't been able to get very many photos of her fancy new attire.  Insert vacay to California and hooray! This is just how all of her dresses should be photographed, if only I had known we would have done a little fashion show on the beach.  :)

So done with the rambling, here's the dress...

Made using another dress as a guide and some simple math.  I used great spring fabric from the quilter's showcase line at JoAnn's with the awesome price tag of $2.50 a yard. :)

It's bound to put a bounce in anyone's step!

Perfect for hunting on the beach...

dancing...

following daaad around...

Cuddling with mom...

And all other kinds of beach fun...

So get springy and make your own!

Seriously, it only gets cuter (of course only until the bright pink cast makes its appearance, but we'll just pretend we don't see it because we are so distracted by the absolute-over-the-top-adorable brown boots... or I should say boot. :) I've got enough supplies left to make 1 more of these puppies for $16.00... email me (link to your left) with your request and size.
