Folklorico dancer looks beautiful in her dress! Finalizing some adjustments for best fit.
Working on the bodice of this folklorico dress! Allowing a little extra room for growth spurts. After cutting everything, I made the marks with a heat erase pen, then started darts on the machine.
The longest thing so far is this ruffle! It is about 32.5 inches long!.
