\"frozen-take-two1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Good morning! I’ve been dawdling on this second Frozen dress (see the first one here<\/a>), but this weekend, I finally completed it. I’m sad to report that it wasn’t a stunning success. I used the same pattern pieces as the first one, and this time, I cut into the fabrics specified by K — all cheap stuff from JoAnn’s. One of the things I did differently was to add rhinestones to the bodice like so:<\/p>\n

\"frozen-take-two2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That’s me, pulling away the plastic film after ironing on the sparkles, happy to see that I didn’t screw it up. It was actually super easy, and I got multiple packs of iron-on rhinestones<\/a>, so I’m ready to bling up a multitude of future outfits.<\/p>\n

\"frozen-take-two3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

K grudgingly put it on (grudgingly! a Frozen costume!) for the photos and immediately took it off afterwards. She likes the muslin version better and I do wish I’d made this second version entirely out of knit fabric. FYI, she decided to write poems while I snapped away with my camera. One was about sharks, and the other one had something to do with living in another world…<\/p>\n

\"frozen-take-two4\"<\/a>\"frozen-take-two5\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If nothing else, the fit is perfect. And the cape train is pretty impressive too.<\/p>\n

\"frozen-take-two6\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Oh well. You win some, you lose some.<\/p>\n

I’ve noticed that Frozen fever has been simmering down, which could also be why she wasn’t as excited about the dress. Her new thing is something called Ever After High<\/a>, and I’m not sure how I feel about this. She’s been reading the books<\/a>, and though I worried that it might be a bit advanced for her, I was reading the Sweet Valley High series in the 3rd grade,\u00a0so I figure it should be okay.<\/p>\n

\"frozen-take-two7\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I’m still struggling with the cape portion and realized that the zipper should start where the cape begins, so the tutorial will have to wait, but this seems a rather all-encompassing princess\/dress-up dress so I hope to be able to put together something in the near future. Even if K doesn’t love it, this was good practice to flex my pattern drafting muscles, so I’m back to the drawing board!<\/p>\n
