Princess Bling - Saturday Snapshots

For the past several years, I've sewn Halloween costumes for my granddaughter. At age two the choice was Little Red Riding Hood, complete with hooded cape. Last year she wanted a doctor's outfit - white lab coat and dark blue scrubs, accessorized with a stethoscope. Now that she's four years old, however, her interests are more "girly," so her choice for Halloween 2015 is a princess costume.

Here's a photo of the raw materials I've gathered for my creation: satiny fabric, shiny trim, tulle, sequins, and beads. Since I haven't done much sewing with these materials, it seems like a good idea to get an early start. Who knows what challenges will arise! I'll post a photo of the finished dress, assuming the reality measures up to the princess gown in my imagination. By the way, the sequins are silver but look blue in my photo for some reason.
