Argh Matey.

For my fourth and final set this go-around, she chose pirate themed.  (firstsecondthird).



 The inspiration for these dresses were found here.


I used the Oliver + S Roller skate dress, modified, of course.  Also, in a size 4 and a size 12m.  I constructed it slightly different as I didn't want the raw edges shown on the black layer (aka lining layer).


I used the pirate as the "main" layer, black as the "lining" and attached the striped fabric to the black.

I think they turned out pretty well, and similar to the inspiration dress, my friend seemed to like them too.  Can't wait to see pictures from her vacay and live vicariously through her, haha!

S'more Minnie.

Continuing on with the Disney themed outfits (first here, second here) next up are matching appliqued shirts and super twirly skirts.  



Again, the inspiration for these was from Pinterest.  I was SO psyched to find the same tossed Mickey head fabric as the inspiration skirts.



I used the super fast Flashback Skinny Tee for the shirts, sizes 5T and 12m.  I for reals love this pattern, like, so much.  Pretty sure it's my most used pattern.  So I have said all I really need to say about it before, but it is a super fantastic fit and a seriously quick sew.


The skirts were just self drafted from the girls' measurements.  The waistband is 1 1/2 times the waist measurement and the skirt is 2 times the waist measurement gathered to the waistband length.  I thought about making each tier more full than the one before, but I like the way these look.

One final installment for this adventure: Pirate themed.

Merida.

Some more Disney (and pinterest) inspired dresses for my friend's up coming cruise.  



Same horrible pattern as last time but since I had already altered all the measurements and figured out the hard part, it was much easier and quicker this time around.  Sizes 5T and 12m.



This is another one she saw on Pinterest and I tried to get it as close to the inspiration dress as I could, I think it came out pretty well :)


The lighting was really, really bad today being it was rainy, so I apologize for the grainy pictures, and also I apparently need to go back to ironing school.


Next up: Minnie appliqued shirts and tiered twirly skirts.
