So, instead of doing the Cindy Lou costume
for the Christmas party,
My daughter wanted to be a Pink Elf from Rudolph!
Here's the motivation:
this worked great, because I had tons of pink material!
I had some quilted lining too...so I made a pointy stiff hat.
For the top...super simple.
folded over rectangle, sewn up the sides,
arm holes left...circle cut for neck.
all cut edges hemmed.

simple. yes. that's my middle name.
8 same sized panels for the skirt.
4 inches across the top. Room for hemming.
all 8 panels sewn right sides out...then flipped
and sewn right sides together.
(invisible stitch or something...)
full flared skirt...ready to sew onto the top piece.
ta da.
