bluespiritSorry this is a bit late, but here's my completed Princess Buttercup dress that I made for my cousin's 40th birthday fancy dress party a couple of weeks ago.
It was an excellent learning experience & I'm pretty pleased, considering it's the first item of clothing that I've ever made! *g*
I also made Mr B's Dread Pirate Roberts costume. I bought an oversized black dress shirt & gathered the shoulders & cuffs & also added laces to the front. I then made his eye mask, bandana & cumberbund.
Here's the Dread Pirate Bud, too! *g*
We had a really great time at the party. It was lovely to see so many people in costume & getting into the spirit. There was a photo booth there, too, & everyone had a lot of fun with that. My feet were so sore from dancing all night, but that was a small price to pay for such a fab night! ;)
