Rayla Costume

Posted by | Nov 1, 2018 | , | 0

My oldest daughter was all over the place this year as far as what she wanted to dress up as.  Hermoine, then a ranger–pretty much whatever book she was currently reading. She finally settled on a character from the Netflix show Dragon Prince.  I haven’t watched the show–but the rest of my family has a my daughter liked Rayla enough to dress up as her.  She here’s my take on a Rayla costume. Rayla is some sort of woodsy elf who can run really fast with her arms behind her.  I stared at pictures of her for hours and...

Hey!  I finally tested another pattern!  I’ve taken a little break from pattern testing in the past couple months as my family transitioned to Florida over the winter and and moved into a new house last month.  It’s felt chaotic and I don’t really feel like my feet are back under me yet-but I have hope that I will get there.  But I just had to test the Cascade Tee despite any craziness because the flounce is so cute without being overly frilly.  It’s my jam. The Cascade Tee can be sewn up as a basic tank, short, or...
