A Hawkeye Tutu


I had an order for a black and gold tutu for a newborn. This is what I ended up with:



I'm sure it will be much cuter on the baby, but there was no newborn baby in sight!!

The yellow tulle is sparkly, so I have sparkles EVERYWHERE in my sewing room! You can see it better in this picture.


When I make things for people I often fell guilty about the price I have to charge, but if I don't then I'm basically doing it for free. As it is I probably only made $8 for my time. If anyone has any suggestions for me regarding this problem, I'd love to hear them.

You know one of the things you can do is have the 'customer' purchase the material and then quote them your price for construction. this puts it into perspective for them just how much goes into the material alone!
