Fits waist 50-55cm (19-21 inches)

This is for little Donya. It is the same style as the ‘hot pink tutu‘ and made with the same colours, in a different order, plus a little bit of gold..

A number of people have asked me what I am doing with the tutus that I make. Until now, I’ve been primarily giving them away as presents. I have built up rather a stock and my enthusiasm for making them has yet to diminsh, so you too can now have a tutu.

***As of 1 June 2010 I will be taking a holiday from tutu making until October.***

This tutu is a new style and even fuller than the previous ones.

I can’t stop making them now, think I’ve become addicted!

The last Sugar Plum Fairy Tutu was sold. Kind of by accident really. I liked it so much, I made another!

An intermittent internet connection has seen me not post, but I’ve been buzzing away in my little studio with rosebuds and glittery tutus.

Sugar Plum Fairy long tutu (ages 5-6)

I used to be fascinated by tutus when I was a child. It seemed magical that the horizontal tutus managed to remain horizontal. The ballerina dancing on pointe took the experience to other-worldly. What I loved most, however, were classical tutus. The dancer’s skirt floated with her through the air, as if held up by hundreds of fairies.

Spring Faerie tutu with satin ribbon waistband (age 4-5)

A new tutu. Thinner this time. More etherial, for skipping softly through new spring grass.

Mermaid tutu with blue satin ribbon (ages 5-6)

I just can’t get enough! No matter how much I shower, vacuum and brush, I cannot get the sparkles out of my life. Absolutely fantastic!

Rose and white tutu with pink and lilac buds (aged 2-3)

I don’t know what’s come over me, but I’ve gone all girlie. Perhaps it’s a repressed girlie-side coming out! The dining room table is covered in glittery piles of colourful netting, rose buds and ribbon – and I can’t get enough! Poor Mr S is suffering. Little Mr MacTavish is over the moon. Seems my little cat is fascinated by sparkles and spinning tutus!
