From 2004.
One of my favourite book series as a kid - I don't know how many times I've reread them all! I had started on this earlier in 2004, but put it on hold for a few months til Dragoncon since my friend Ash decided she wanted to make a Scraps (Patchwork Girl) costume to go with me.
The dress was made using an altered pattern - it has an underdress made of multiple layers of organza to give it some poof. The brooch I bought and repainted, and my father helped me to make the crown out of styrene. I bought and reassembled the flowers, and the shoes I bought and embroidered with green metallic thread.
I absolutely love this costume, it's so comfortable and fun to wear.
I wore this at Dragoncon 2004 & San Diego Comic Con 2005.
