Frozen Costumes for AG Dolls

After seeing the Disney movie "Frozen" my daughters were captivated by the characters-and who could blame them!! It was such an amazing movie so much that they decided they aren't "too old" for princesses :)  If you haven't seen it and enjoyed the Lion King, then this one is for you.

Since Christmas is right around the corner I decided I'd look through my scrap fabric and found some stuff that actually worked for both characters! Lucky me. Unlucky for me, I didn't make a pattern. I just sort of cut and went along- which proved to not be a smart idea for Anna, but it worked! I can't wait to see their faces on Christmas :)

For Elsa, I used some light blue shimmering fabric & some sheer with gems fabric. I attached the cape with Velcro, because when I tried to make it permanently attached, I couldn't get it on the doll .


Anna was harder, I already had all the fabric (except for the cape) I found  a pattern for that on pintrest and had to scale it waaaaaaay down. (it was meant for a baby)


Now, I know Anna's dress has the beautifully designed flowers all around the bottom. I am getting to that. I am waiting to see what my silhouette Cameo can do for me. Either that or it will be added by hand as the time goes. I just don't think I can finish 11 of them before Christmas between all of my other obligations.

    1. I would love to make some for you! I am working on making a pattern for them & I can e-mail you when I am finished with the new set and see if you're interested. I don't currently have a shop ( I have e-bay and paypal though) and nothing is up yet.
