An Angry Bird Dress


For Ephraim's birthday, I wanted to make something fun for Aeris to wear.  There are a lot of t-shirts available for little boys, but nothing for girls.  Plus, it's always more fun to create something if you have time!



I didn't really want to buy much for the dress, so I remembered Dana had a fun pattern that utilized an old t-shirt that I never made time to try.  I used the Warhol Dress for the red dress, and then hand stitched a red feather boa around the bottom of the dress.  For the belly on the dress, I just used some felt to applique the face. 

For Aeris's hair piece, I just wrapped a little bit of the boa around my fingers and stitched it onto a circle of felt.  I hot glued a hair clip to the underside and that was it!
