Seriously. Awful. Everything is crooked, it’s way to small on her, and there is entirely too little tulle for the effect I was going for.
And of course when I tried it on just to see how bad it was my child refused to take it off. Of course she did.
What? I don’t care if you have “craft” issues. It’s fun to play with the tulle.
You're never taking this off of me, mom.
I also feel the need to point out here that her current favorite toy is a shiny, pink purse I bought her at a used clothing sale for 10 cents.
She fills it with her matchbox cars.
You know who else I think could rock pink tulle while playing with cars?
Miss Annie Oakley. So her colorway is now available for the first time ever here on Etsy.
It's good to be a girl!

ReplyDeleteHey Pretty Knitty, I have some of that Annie Oakley, if you want to pet it before you buy it. Let me know and I'll bring it Thursday.
ReplyDeleteOh, and Jeanne, is it really a fail if she loves it?
ReplyDeleteI think it's cute. She loves it and that's what counts. I think Miss Dorothy is jealous though and wants a tu tu too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute skirt!! :) She looks great! :)
ReplyDeleteHey, hope all is well for you! While I'd agree with the above comments that "fail" is in the eye of the beholder, I just saw this tutorial and thought of you:

It's totally cute! If the Girl loves it, the skirt is a WIN! And the shiny red shoes are too cute for words. :-)
