How Do You Make A Childs Fairy Costume For Fairy Dress Up Or Halloween?
A quick and easy fairy costume for your child that requires only basic sewing skills and your creativity! Lay out your sheer fabric folded in half on your work surface. Lay the half slip on top of the fabric. Cut your sheer fabric to size around your slip, leaving about a 1″ margin on the sides and 2″ margin on the top. Cut any decorative lace or edging off of the slip. Snip a zigzag pattern on the bottom edges of both the slip and both pieces of sheer fabric. Fold over the top edge of your sheer fabric until bottom edges of slip and fabric meet and pin together. On the right side, zizag stitch the sheer fabric directly onto the slip’s elastic waistband using matching thread and pulling the slip elastic as you go to create pleating. Continue around the waistband until both pieces are completely sewn on.
