before anna’s birthday, i had the bright idea to make her a rainbow tutu. you know, to go with the rainbow dash my little pony theme. except then, everyone took a turn at being sick (some of us twice). and time ran out.
well, i picked it back up yesterday. and frustratedly concocted this shoddily made piece of twirly magical little girl clothing.
anna LOVES it.
it’s perfect for twirling, i’m told.
i had the bright idea to sew it, versus making a nifty no-sew tutu. after all, i fancy myself a sewist, right?
well, cramming 32 yards of tulle (that’s the official name of tutu material) around a 19 inch waist proved to be a little tricky. in retrospect, i might have had a bit more fabric that i needed.
but, this kid is happy, so i’m good.
and that’s story of the rainbow tutu.
Love it!
