DIY Princess Anna's Costume

The Queen Elsa's costume that I sewn earlier was a hit with my girls.  Both wanted to wear it, all the time.  So, instead of two Elsa's, I was thinking, why not sew an Anna's costume?  Then both the girls can play older and younger sisters, just like Elsa and Anna.

The Anna's costume comprises of a skirt, long sleeve blouse, vest and also a cape.  The costume looks simple. However, on closer scrutiny, it has lots of details : the  light blue wave-like pattern at the hem of the skirt, complete with the motif of the flowers. Similar motifs can be found at the vest as well.  Then there is the darker shade pattern and dangling 'balls' at the cape.  I couldn't find those dangling balls anywhere and decided to omit it.   Will add them back in if I manage to get hold of some. 









Slaved over the costume for a few nights.  Finally, it is done!  The look at the faces of the girls were priceless.  Both went 'Let it go.... Let it go....' and 'Do you want to build a snowman....' repeatedly like a broken record.  Not that I mind though  :)
