Present for a Princess

 

I just wanted to post this picture for my mom of the Rapunzel dress I made yesterday for Lillie's birthday that's coming up in a week and a half. We saw Tangled while in Utah and we loved it! Especially Lillie. So I got her a doll and made this dress to give her on her big day. She saw the top half of the dress while I was making it, but I finished the rest of it after she was asleep. So I think she'll still be surprised. I think I'll still add some trim around the sleeves and I'm toying with the idea of making a giant braid out of yellow yarn to finish off the look (the braid probably won't happen by her birthday as I need to focus my attention on Eric's party) someday. I roughly followed instructions from the "Make It and Love It" blog. And then added the overlay to make it more Rapunzel-esk. I'll hem it once she's tried it on. But I'm so happy with the way it turned out, she's gonna love it!
