With DD's birthday coming up I wanted to make some dress up clothes and include a more special princess dress for Halloween (Snow White). I'd like for her to be able to put on the clothes by herself so a side/back zipper or ties is out- I'm most comfortable working with with elastic thread or elastic in a casing.
Do you have any suggestions for great base dresses (especially princess like) that a preschooler can easily pull on over their clothes for play?
I've never worked with the costume satins from Joann's (approx $2.99/yard) and I don't have a serger. Is the fabric tricky/slippery to work wit and can I shir them with elastic thread for a waist/back? I wonder too if it snags easily- I don't want them to look junky quickly.
Thanks for any suggestions! I hope to be back here more once cold weather comes along!
