Montana wanted another dress, one that twirled. We had a problem though, what fabric to use. Montana couldn't decide. She definately wanted the red hearts on pink by Cosmo Fabrics, which ended up being the straps and the bottom hem but had numerous other pieces that just didn't go together.
So I had a lightbulb moment. Why not use a whole lot of fabrics, with each tier having the same colourway. Out come the pencils...
Then I ran into another problem....I really don't have orange. Instead of having 7 tiers I ended up with 6, purple, red, yellow, pink, green and blue with an orange zipper.The front
The back
The twirl
Each tier has the hem sewn down with the same colour thread and we have a wide variety of fabrics mermaids, very hungry caterpillar, wow wow wubbzy, flowers, smurfs, thomas the tank, saggy baggy elephant, tinkerbell and so on.....
