Elsa's dream flags

For my niece Elsa's birthday I thought I'd get crafty and try a few handmade gifts that I've been wanting to try for a while.
Elsa's is a sweet girl and my first thought was to make something for her that would match with something I make for Rosie. Elsa may live in Perth but our family connection can still be strong through shared gifts and experiences so I made a pillowcase dress for each of them (see later post for more about these). I also made her a sun hat (more on these awesome babies later!) and finally something to hang in her bedroom - dream flags.
These are double-sides calico with an appliqued letter on each, sewn together with some homemade bias. I'm pretty happy with the result and an looking forward to making some of these for my girls too :-)







And here they are hanging in Elsa's room...
