Maggie's pink Crumpets dress is finished. I actually finished it a while back - but she reacted negatively to the highly-elasticized bodice, and refused to wear it. Today [livejournal.com profile] selenite worked with her and modified it so that she will wear it. It's down to only 3 elastic bands instead of 10 - I hope that and the shoulder straps will hold it.



She looks the utter little princess!





Doesn't she do a nice curtsey?







Maggie shows off how well the skirt swirls






Maggie shows off the pink ribbon bow in back.





Jamie's reaction to Maggie in the dress was to come up excitedly, insist on holding her hand, and ask her to dance.

Aww!

Favorite picture - "bow in back". Twirling also a favorite. Good for Jamie - brothers are SUPPOSED to react that way!

The dress, and Maggie, are adorable.

Where was the elastic, in the bodice?

Yes, in the bodice - one elastic under each row of beads.

I like the swirling skirt. It looks like it has some weight to it, then.

Such a pretty girl she is!

What's the engineering on those shoulder straps? They LOOK a tad small but if they're at least a crochet chain they should hold as long as they stay tied. You could probably reinforce stress points such as where the straps meet the bodice with more of that narrow pink ribbon from the sash, stitched onto the backside of the joint point.

ext_3450: readhead in a tophat. She looks vaguely like I might, were I young and pretty. (Default)
