So while I did my best to keep the Cinderella Christmas project a secret, she knew I was sewing something. She is running the Disney princess half-marathon at the end of February and thought I might be making a Cinderella running dress for her.....I wasn't.....BUT I really liked the idea so CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!
The running dress is a variant off the patterns I made for the main dress. Obviously, it is much shorter and doesn't have the puffy sleeves....things that would kinda get in the way after a half mile let alone 13! The dress is made from dry fit shirts from old navy so it breaths and moves well. To make it "magical" I piped the edges of the bodice and the bottom of the skirt with reflective piping so it sparkles and is safe! Also, because you're not doing it right unless you are overdoing it, I made a petticoat to go under the dress with built in running briefs.
Look for its debut at the Disney Princess half in Feb. Better pics to come!! Back view after the jump.
My girlfriend is a huge Cinderella fan so this year for Christmas I decided to make her a Cinderella dress. After doing a bit of research I decided that I really don't like the cartoon Cinderella's dress. It works fine for a drawing but the little hip pouches don't really translate well to anything you could wear around. After a bit more searching I found the Annie Leibovitz Cinderella photo with Scarlett. I really liked the dress and thought that with a lot less volume it could actually pass pretty well as a fancy dress. So like all my sewing endeavors I started with no patterns and, in this case, just one image to work from.
The picture is from Andrea's first fitting. Still haven't hemmed it yet. Once we have a nice warm weekend in Georgia when we aren't super busy I will get some nice pics.
More pics after the jump. Better /detailed pics and possible instructions to come!
This was a small project that I did for my second cousin's birthday. He really likes Captain America and I didn't think throwing a plastic shield around the house would go over too well with his parents. This plush shield can be used as both an pillow and soft, throw-able, indoor plush! The shield is made from polar fleece reinforced with interfacing.
