I was finally able to upload the pictures of the tutu I made for my niece for her birthday. (Have I mentioned how much I hate not having the Internet at home? What? Not recently. Well then, let me just reiterate how absolutely annoying it is to have to wait until I can get to my mom’s or sister’s to upload pictures… A-NNOY-ING!!)
I actually have tons of pictures…more pictures of this then one would rightfully need. But I promise not to overwhelm you and so I will simply share just a few.
Enjoy!

She was so excited when she opened it and it ‘popped’ out of the box.

So, she just had to try it on…with her leotard. It was too big way too big which is why she has it pulled way up under her arms.

But that didn’t stop her from doing somersaults in it.
I ended up taking it home that night in order to make it smaller. I really underestimated just how tiny my niece really is. It apparently fits her fine now, although I haven’t gotten a chance to see her in it yet. Maybe the next time we go over for dinner. I loved making it and really wish I had more nieces, because really…just how many tutus does one little girl really need.
