I'm calling this one Chocolate Pink Tutu. It's pink with chocolate swirling through and just a hint of sparkle.
Sierra modeling.The odd thing is that when Sierra was born I was really routing for her to be more of a tom-boy. I resisted too much pink baby clothes. But I secretly really like the girly-girl and princess stuff, too. (Well, I guess it's not such a secret anymore.) After I'm done with the ones I'm making for the auction, I'll take Sierra to the craft store and let her help me pick out colors and embellishments for her own tutu.

I'm glad you're letting Sierra pick one. I was looking at the picture thinking...hey mom, you're going to end up having to purchase the thing that you made. It looks good.
It's actually very easy and cheap to make... if you just use tulle. The hardest, and most expensive, part is the embellishments. And, of course, then it's about what and how you use it. So I always knew I'd make one for Sierra -- I just wanted to see what I could do first, so that hers turns out the best!
Sierra and I went to to the fabric store today and bought hot pink and orange tulle. Plus 1/8 in. ribbon to run through it and a big wide purple ribbon for a bow. I'll post photos when it's done.
I've seen a lot of tutus but that's the first in that color and I love it!
