Skirt 2 for granddaughter, who wanted a blue skirt for her Anna outfit as well as the green I made earlier. See link. Placement was a bit trickier on this one due to the shape of the skirt.


Now to do a dress for a 7 yr old grandniece.

Darling! You did a great job with the designs placements! I'm sure your granddaughter loves the swirly skirt! My daughter is 19 and when she wears a skirt, she likes one that moves!

Thank you. She likes everything I've made her so far, sewn, knitted and crocheted, but the skirt might be her favourite for some time.

From what you said in the original post you will be doing these for a couple of more times with such wonderful young ladies clamoring for the dress. This is as beautiful as the original, lovely colors and designs go well.

Wow! You have done the amazing again! The dress is perfect!
I love that your country and the traditional dress worn at the time was shown in the movie. It is so nice that your grands can show pride in your history and wear a beautiful costume, created by someone they love, that shows it.

Not my country, I live in the Netherlands but my daughter lives in Norway. And Norwegians are proud of their regional dresses, you should see them at May 17th - everyone wears the costume of the region they come from. I've made lots of pictures during the last 5 years, a great inspiration for embroidery designs!

Thanks. I folded the pattern pieces in half and then in four to get my working areas, but to the very critical eye some dance up a couple of mm's. But so does my granddaughter :)

jrob by jrob 13 Nov 2014

Brilliant of you to work that out. No very critical eyes here and I'll bet she will be dancing up a couple of mm's! LOL
