A Tinkerbell Dress for Princess Madison

I just finished Madison's dress!

Madison is another precious princess from China and her mommy orders a custom dress from me every year for Madison's birthday.

This year, Madison requested purple shiny fabric with Tinkerbell smocking with flowers.

I found a purple cotton sateen with a lovely hand, heavy enough for a winter dress.

Madison requested her name on her dress and for

some reason the shiny thread is reflecting the light.

I sewed on some sparkly lime green beads and lime green

rickrack to pick up the color in Tink's outfit.

I love the green rickrack on the collar.

Yes, the sash in the back is really that big.

I LOVE big sashes and this one tied so pretty.

Little, tiny cuff with green rickrack and lavender flower button.

We all know I can't take good pictures, so there is some weird shine on this one.

Normally, I sew the petticoat in to the dress, but this time, I made it separately just in case Madison was overcome with the need to twirl when she did not want to wear her dress.

So, there it is. Madison's Tinkerbell dress. I can't wait to see pictures of her wearing it.

It will be in a box, winging it's way to this "Fairy" princess on Friday!

Happy Birthday sweet girl!
