The Cotton Candy Dream Dress

Are you ready to get creative?

The Cotton Candy Dream Dress is a fun and whimsical design. It features two amazing options: an everyday play dress and a special occasion dress.

The every day dress is designed to use your favorite cotton/woven prints. Use fun trims or embellishing techniques to add a signature creative touch to the everyday version. With the every day dress, your sweetheart will be ready to conquer hearts all day long.

The special occasion dress is designed to give you an easy-to-follow tutorial that allows you to create a fantastic and beautiful tea-length dress for those really special moments. With layer upon layer of fluffy tulle, your sweetheart will be a show-stopper at any special occasion, from the daddy-daughter-dance, first communion, pageants, birthday parties, dress-ups, formal dances, or as the most precious flower girl ever.

Get your creativity flowing by embellishing the bodice with bias tape, trims, or a lace overlay. The sweetheart neckline and delicate criss-cross straps create an enchanted feel.

Follow the easy instructions for working with tulle and you will find yourself beaming with pride that you actually made such a gorgeous garment. Both dresses feature double strap ties that cross in the back and tie into pretty bows, a sweetheart neckline, and a comfortable elastic back. Whether you choose the special occasion version or the everyday dress, you will love all the pretty details in this pattern.

All sizes from 12m through 10y are included, as well as thorough sizing charts and sizing information.

Thorough instructions on how to cut tulle and an in-depth explanation of various gathering methods will ensure that every sewist can make a dress as elaborate as this one.

Basic sewing skills are all you need to create a professional-looking dress.

Although the design appears to be intricate and complex, do not let this fool you: the step-by-step instructions and spot-on pictures will help even a beginner create this beauty of a dress.

You do not need a serger for this dress.
