I Tutued!

I was very inspired by Samster Mommy's  Tutu 2010 drive, that I tried my hand at making one last night and I think it turned out OK. No, it's not exactly going to be used by any Bolshoi ballerinas but that wasn't the point anyway :)  I more or less followed the instructions that the Greenbean's Crafterole used, which she modified from Samster Mommy's tutu-orial.  I used a roll of tulle cut in 24 inch lengths ( so when they're doubled over they're 12 inches in length) and tied them to a length of satin ribbon. It was super easy and for a first crack at making a tutu, I think it will work:
 
Excuse that piece that's flipped up in the corner...it really does lay down!

    Very cute - visiting from Whatever Goes Wed. I am on my way tonight to HobbyLobby to pick up tutu supplies for Samster's drive too. Made one for my little girl out of the tulle I bought (she loved it so much, LOL)
