She looked perfectly pretty in her Birthday/Costume!
I made a bodice using Baroque in pink that was doubled, but unfortunately I didn't bring it when I went fabric shopping so of course the fabric I bought (tulle + matching lining) didn't match the Baroque one.
Good thing I had like 15 pre-made bodices (made over 2 years ago) on standby. When I saw the cream one in speckled pink, purple, yellow and aqua, (I actually had 2 diff. versions, one with the tie sides and one without, just a sleeveless one) it was soo perfect with the skirt and I didn't have to worry about making another one from scratch as her party was only 4 days away.
Laura was the Belle of her Birthday and I apologize for the camera-phone quality as our real camera died early this year (maybe I should put a new digicam on my wish list LOL), but she really looks like the beautiful princess she is!
The theme for her birthday was Hello Kitty, but none of her gifts were of the said kitty because apparantly she's kinda hard to find outside of Target. Heeheehee.
Alas, her pretty dress is now a ripped wreck. She also wore her "Princess Costume" to 2 Harvest Festivals sponsored by different churches and well, let's just say she really looked pretty in it while it lasted.
I don't know if I am going to repair it right away. Right now the thought of even fixing her dress is depressing. But one day it will get done.
Happy Crocheting Y'all!
