Princesses
Nov. 18th, 2014 11:53 amI have pictures of my princesses in their new dresses.

Sleeping Beauty is made using the Simplicity 9384 pattern that's out of print. It calls for thirty-two pieces to the skirt and horsehair braid. I skipped the horsehair braid but otherwise did everything the pattern called for. It's quite a dress.

Merida is much simpler and was made using Simplicity 1557. It's got a petticoat underneath, and I need to watch part of the movie again to see whether the ruffle is supposed to peek out or if I need to shorten it a bit.
They're both quite happy with their dresses, though they've outgrown the period of wanting to wear them around constantly.
