Here is Elisa's Christmas outfit. One of my favorites that I have designed and made. It gets a ton of compliments and she even got her Christmas portraits taken in it. I loved making this, except putting the tulle on the onsie. I HATE working with tulle. Hate it, hate it, hate it. Torturous. Excruciatingly tedious. It's because it slips all over the place. But I showed that tulle who's boss and it turned out super cute regardless. I came up with my own technique of applying the Christmas tree, and it turned out great. I drew a picture of a Christmas tree on a piece of paper and sewed it over a chunk of tulle. Then I cut out the tree, ripped off the excess paper, and sewed the tree on to the shirt using a very tight zig-zag stitch. Very easy. The rest of the decorations were easy and fun-I just made some ribbon flowers and glued and glued.
I love how adorable she looks in this outfit. I would probably charge $50-60 for the entire outfit if I were to sell it. But I paid about
$15, and that includes the tulle and ribbon, of which I have a bunch left over. Not a bad price for an outfit this cute!
