Sewing solely for the little goddess.

Lolita tee by Cinderella *zwergen* mode

I gave this pattern a test run using fabric solely chosen for the fact

that the mini diva of the house would like them.

(= lots of pink)

I had no regard for the fibre content of the various stretch knits so it may come out of its first wash

more resembling a stuffed bear that has been pulled in 3 different directions

by 3 kids

at the same time 

than a tee shirt.

I chose the embroidery for the same reason.

Luckily she adores it.

I haven't seen her so keen and happy to try on something that I have made her

for quite some time.

I would have been more adventurous with my fabric choices

if I didn't care about it being shoved to the back of the drawer

by said goddess.

Fabrics: pink Stella from Crafty Mamas, other knits from stash.

Pattern: as above from Crafty Mamas

Embroidery: Designs by Juju- Fun Spring Butterflies (applique)

Approval rating from the kid: 6 out of 5

I lengthened the tee as other sewers had commented that it was quite short.

I would also seriously recommend using like fabrics.

(I'm now quite nervous about washing the darn thing.

Imagine the tantrum if it gets destroyed in the wash...)

Now if I can just get over the name of this pattern...
Lolita reminds me of THAT movie...
...and I have a hard time reconciling a pattern for a little girl called the same.
