Belle




Cinderella

I found the most beautiful aqua pin dot knit jersey for Lily's Cinderella dress. Paired with a white burnout striped jersey for the underskirt and accents, and a glass slipper charm - I love the way it came out! She'll probably wear it the day we're at the Magic Kingdom.

Chef Minnie Three-In-One


We will be having our first character dining experience on this trip, and since Miss Lily's favorites at the moment are Mickey & Minnie we've decided on Chef Mickey's at the Contemporary Resort.

For this one I used the same pattern as I did for Jesse, the Oliva Peasant Dress by Viola Lee. But I kept truer to the original this time and then added a cute little ruffled apron.

But it seemed a shame to have the apron with just Mickey in his chef's hat, so I decided to make it reversible so that Lily can use the dress for her birthday party this summer as well.

And regular Minnie who's pretty cute all on her own!

Yeehaw!


It's been almost ten years since I've visited Disney's Hollywood Studios (which will forever be MGM in my mind). So I wasn't sure exactly which character to model Lily's outfit after on the day we head to that park.

But after doing some research and seeing that DHS has a strong Pixar presence now, Jesse emerged as the natural choice. Most of this outfit features the same soft jegging material that I used on Snow White with the cute little cowgirl touches.

For the Jesse top I used Viola Lee's Olivia Peasant Dress Pattern, and altered the skirt and ruffle dimensions to fit the length I needed and then added the red ruffle and rosette in lieu of the ties. The ruffled jeggings from the Snow White top will do double duty and go with Jesse as well.



The Jesse Top & Ruffled Jeggings will be available in my Etsy Shop shortly.

Here is another version of Tenderfeet Stitches Milkmaid Dress that I designed for our day in the Animal Kingdom.
