My Emma as Tinkerbell
My granddaughter Emma was Tinkerbell for Halloween. A McCalls pattern was used as a base with liberties taken. A very full Tutu in green and lavender tulle made her quite the Diva. She also had a custom hairband, a wand and dyed to match tights. The bolero, skirt petals and purchased wings were embellished with deconstructed silk flowers. I have to confess the flowers were a last minute detail added to cover an accident with very red nail polish !
Pattern or design used: McCalls M6138
