This year for Shrovetide my little girl didn't want to be a princess again. But she still wanted to be pretty, so I made this forest fairy dress for her.

What a beautiful little forest fairy she must have been. Love the colours *4U

your dress is beautiful ... stunning work... this is a pretty design for a child's dress up dress.. think I will try it for one of the granddaughters.. I need imagination for others.. thank you

The skirt is 3 layers of transparent and very soft fabric. One of the fabrics are used for the top, but with not-transparent fabric beneath. Happy sewing.

Just Darling...

You little fairy must have been the prettiest of them all. Great work.

I have 2 purposes for being on this site. Embroidery inspiration of course and then I just love to hear about the differences in the world. People are very good at telling stuff, I learned at lot here about other countries.

Very beautiful.

It looks great, I really like the color combination, just perfect!

Hej Jannie. Ej hvor sjovt. Jo modellen er fra Stof og Stil, jeg har også planer om at bruge mønstret til sommerkjole. Jeg bor mellem Århus og Silkeborg, tæt ved Låsby.

Please forgive us. We come from such a small country and are not used to "meet" one another "out in the world". We are just discussing where to buy the pattern for the dress and where we live.

This is lovely, Sand! I'm sure your daughter was beautiful in this dress. Well done!

Beautiful dress

What a beautiful dress.....I'm sure she looked just like a fairy in it.;)

Beautiful dress, your little girl must have really loved it.
Cheers, Claire

Beautiful dress. Great colors!

The dress is lovely. Sounds like the children have fun on this special day for them

lovely little dress, I'm sure she looked beautiful.

We celebrate Shrove Tuesday however it is more of a Christian festival, rather than a general one. Traditionally we eat pancakes and have games and lots of fun before the beginning of Lent the following day, being Ash Wednesday. Your daughter must have looked so sweet in her fairy dress.. my girls would love it :)

What a beautiful little forest fairy she must have been. thank u for sharing, but next time take the pic with the little doll n it so we can see her too. *

This is beautiful.
