But it will be necessary to try on the pattern for the girl so that adjustments can be made. Sew wide sleeves here, gather them with an elastic band.

From the same fabric, make the top for the Christmas tree, stitching the fabric in the form of a cap. To keep it well, sew an elastic band into the lower part, which should be slightly less than the volume of the girl's head. Sew tulle bags on this cap. Decorate the outfit with beads.
Taking tulle 3 times more than the volume of the child's hips, you can make beautiful flounces out of it. Alternate with gathered satin stripes. To keep these rectangles in shape and look neat, fold them in half beforehand.

If the upper part of the suit is light and solid, then sew green bows to it. Smocked tulle of this color will become a skirt. Just don't forget about the petticoat, as this fabric is transparent.
The cape will perfectly complement the New Year's costume. Use a shiny green fabric for this piece and for the skirt. It will be enough to decorate it with tinsel by sewing on the edge and make various curls out of it.

Princess costume for New Year
What girl doesn't want to be a princess? Make your little one look like a heroine. You can use an existing dress. See how to turn a skirt into such a fluffy one. The following figure shows the arrows for stitching. Dimensions are given in inches, but it is easy to convert them to centimeters if you know that one inch is 2.54 cm.
You can make the arrows of the length you need, keeping in mind that the center stitch is the longest, the other two, symmetrically located on either side of it, are slightly shorter, and the side stitches are the shortest.
When sewing on a typewriter or on your hands, you need to pull on the ends of the threads to gather them. Firmly fix the threads, straighten the skirt, you get this beauty.
Put a tulle petticoat down on the girl, and a crown on her head, which can be made of colored cardboard.
You will learn how to create it a little later, but for now, see how to sew a princess costume simply and quickly. Here's what you need to make an outfit:
- the girl's old dress, which is just right for her;
- 1 m of white fabric;
- pink or blue matter - 2 m;
- oblique inlay;
- zipper or Velcro;
- elastic;
- auxiliary tools.
Fold the dress in half, place it on large paper or newspaper, sketch, cut out this pattern.
Now attach this base to the fabric folded in half, fix with pins, cut along the contour, leaving allowances for the seams.
The back of the dress consists of two identical parts cut in mirror image. Tuck up the center edges of each, stitch, zip in here, or sew on Velcro.
The front part is decorated with an insert, which is trimmed with braid.
Cut out two sleeves and cuffs for them.
To know how long the cuff is, measure the volume of the girl's arm. The sleeves themselves should be more puffy so that they can be gathered together. But first fold each cuff in half, and then insert between the halves of the gathered sleeve part.
Now each sleeve needs to be put into its own armhole, gathered a little and fixed with safety pins or basted with a thread and a needle.
If you have folds on the right and left of your skirt, then you need to cut them out and then sew them to the bodice.
To make a New Year's dress for the girl further, cut out a skirt. To do this, you need to cut out a rectangle, the width of which is one and a half times larger than the diameter of the hips. You will determine the length directly for the child. Stitch the sides and bottom of the skirt, gather it on top, sew to the bodice.
Tape the neck with a bias tape.
Here is such an elegant dress. If the girl likes Princess Sofia, you can please the child with the outfit of this heroine.
Below is a bodice pattern for a girl. If it suits your child, take it as a basis. If not, then try increasing or decreasing this pattern by adding or slightly removing in the center.
Attach the paper base to the child, if everything suits you, then you can place it on satin fabric and cut along the markings, making allowances for the seams.
To make it more pleasant for the girl to wear a dress, cut out the details of the bodice not only from silk, but also from cotton fabric, which will become the lining.
One satin fabric is enough for the sleeves, make them semicircular, turn and hem the bottom.
Make the underskirt out of white satin, sewing a lilac satin braid along the bottom. The same color will be needed for the skirt. You need to cut 4 pear-shaped parts from this fabric.
From a white satin fabric, cut a square with sides of 24 cm, draw a flower with four petals on it.
To prevent the edges of the applique from falling off, process them over a candle flame. Sew embellishments on the gusset of the skirt. Sew sequins or beads around the edge of the skirt.
Cut out two semicircular shuttlecocks, process and decorate them. Sew on both sides to the top of the skirt, then sew the skirt to the bodice.
Here is such a wonderful princess dress.

How to make a princess crown?
Here it will turn out to be such a light openwork. To do this, you need to take:
- wide lace;
- PVC glue;
- brush;
- scissors;
- sequins;
- acrylic paint;
- rounded object.
Measure the diameter of the baby's head. You need to cut the lace to the same size. Dissolve PVA glue in water in the same proportion, apply this mass with a brush to the lace, and if required, then paint with acrylic paint. While the workpiece is still wet, wrap it around a round object, gluing the ends together. When it is completely dry, you can put the crown on the head of the little princess.
You can also make this accessory out of felt, complementing the outfit with a magic wand. To do this, take:
- felt flaps of 2-3 colors;
- a needle and thread;
- satin ribbons;
- scissors;
- bezel.
Wrap a strip of felt around the bezel, periodically wedging this material. From the fabric, cut out the blank of the crown itself so that you can fold it in half, which you will do. Secure it in this position by sewing shiny sequins here. Cut out several stars of different sizes from the remnants of the material. Glue them together, attach satin ribbons and a stick.
You can even make a crown from the material at hand. If you need a small one, then use a toilet paper roll. The upper part needs to be cut in a zigzag manner, and a thin elastic band should be attached to the lower part. Decorate the blank with beads or glitter, or you can glue pieces of colored paper here.
If you need a more spacious crown, then cut a rectangle out of cardboard, match and glue its edges. Decorate this princess accessory.
If you know how to make quilling elements, then twist them and glue them in such a sequence to get a gorgeous crown with a snowflake.
In such a headdress, the princess will shine. You can also wear it to a girl who depicts a snowflake or the Snow Queen at a New Year's party.
If you want to make a golden crown, then take:
- cardboard of this color;
- scissors;
- sequins;
- glue.
Cut the golden cardboard into 5 cm squares. Fold these blanks diagonally.
Drop a little glue on the corner of the first piece, insert it partially into the second.
The third piece will connect these two triangles. Thus, create a crown to fit the child's head. If you have non-colored cardboard, then paint it with gold acrylic paint.
