We did the same kind of a thing for a sorority costume party...A friend wanted to be a fairy. They are SO fun and easy. I love those!

Thank you for your kind comment on my baby sweater/booties! I love your tutu's, they turned out great. Love the dramatic coloring as well! I wish I would have seen that tut when I made my daughter a tutu last Halloween. Did not go so well! jenn Hi Fiona! Thank you for your kind comment on my baby sweater/booties!

It was actually really easy, though I am sure there are many ways to do it. People with more experience might scoff at the way I did it, but it worked and is suitable for little girls to play in. I have been looking for instructions on the internet for awhile and found the following tutorial recently: http://plumtickled.typepad.com/plumtickled/2007/08/tutu-tutorial-t.html I didn't follow it exactly, but it was a great guide. I used two strips for each knot. I think the waistband might be a little more delicate with just one strip per knot, but it would have required me to tie twice as many to get the fullness I wanted. Try it out and let me know how you get on! All the best Fiona Hi Lory

I have no idea how to make tutus. Was working with all those layers of tulle and the elastic complex? What about taking long strips of tulle in each of the colors and stacking them together when sewing them to the elastic? Or would that have been too bulky? That'd be good to know for future reference. :):):):):) Have a great weekend! Lory Pretty! I have no idea how to make tutus. Was working with all those layers of tulle and the elastic complex?
