There's a Christmas story that I've wanted to do for several years, and the main character is a little Princess, so in the hopes that I'll finally get to doing the story this year, I'm making a new outfit for the Princess. I'm taking my inspiration for her costume from the Russian Snow Maiden, who is their Father Frost's granddaughter. She's traditionally dressed in blues with a fur trimmed jacket....
I had gathered the fabrics a little while ago, but wanted to finish Eden's outfit before I started this new costume. The main dress would be the gray and blue brocade, with an underskirt and sleeves of the lighter blue, and a little jacket and hat out of the darker blue brocade....
I cut everything out two days ago, and started work on it. The gown will be for BID Nami, and I'm using my patterns for BID Medieval Gowns just in a new colour combination....
The bodice with one sleeve finished....
Sleeves inset this morning....
The bodice finished and ready to attach the skirts....
Then comes the tricky part - designing the little jacket, and trying to figure out how to trim it with white fur, without it getting too bulky.
