    My grand daughter is crazy over Tinkerbell. she just turned 3 and her party is tomorrow. I got this fabric about a month ago and didn't know what to make for her. And with all the purses out there I decided to make her one of those. I used the tulip purse pattern and cut the smallest one down another 1-1/2 inches. I only put the pocket on the outside because it was so small. Actually I didn't know what size the petite one really was but knew it was too big for her. I had never made them before. So last night I made her this Tinkerbell skirt with the purse to match. I want to go to the store today to get her a top and maybe some tights to go along with them...I was pleased with the result.

    That skirt just made me smile!!! The purse and skirt are just adorable!!!Isn't your GD lucky to have a sweet grandma like you! :-) Hope you find the perfect top and tights. You should post a picture of your GD when she has the whole outfit on.

    Such a neat idea! My know my GD would love it,she's 3 going on 30, so I know yours will too. With shirt and tights - perfect outfit - the trick will be getting her to take it off!!! She is a lucky little girl for sure.
