The Sugarplum Princess dress is every little girl's fairytale dream! This unique double skirted dress is sure to make any little girl feel like a princess. The cap sleeves can be worn on or off the shoulders, giving the dress an old fashioned yet timeless feel. The elasticized back (done by shirring OR elastic casings) allows for a flattering shape while still being comfortable for your little one to wear. The outer skirt with it’s beautiful ruffled panels on each side, and the ballerina style bodice with it's pointed bottom give this dress a real storybook appeal. Two generous ties that come out of the side seams tie at the back of the dress in a big bow, completing the fairytale look. This dress is appropriate for the intermediate seamstress.....techniques you will need to use to sew the Sugarplum Princess dress include gathering, shirring, and sewing a curved seam. The tutorial takes you through all of it, step by step with plenty of colored pictures! This tutorial shows you how to shir the back bodice OR make elastic casings. This listing includes the tutorial as well as the pattern pieces to sew the Sugarplum Princess dress in size 6-12m (19" chest) months through size 10. However, the size 10 is generously sized due to the elastic, and is designed to fit a chest of about 29" give or take an inch, so many moms find that the size 10 will fit their size 12 girls well.
