Sew A Dorothy Costume.

Heading Size:

My youngest daughter was two when we first bought the Wizard of Oz DVD. She watched that movie over and over.

Fast forward of few year later, it still remains her favorite. When her friends were all going as Wizard of Oz characters for Halloween one year, she chose to be Dorothy.

I love making this costume it was an easy pattern to make and she wanted to embellish her costume a little even though the traditional Dorothy dress is not embellished.

Simplicity sewing pattern 4139: Child Costumes size A (3-4-5-6-7-8) The pattern called for ribbon embellishment around the neck and the sleeve bands. I couldn't find any ribbon that I liked, so I used piping instead. I used a cotton gingham fabric, for the skirt and bib, and white cotton broadcloth for the top. To apply the gems onto the front bodice of the dress, I used fabric glue.
