Remember my last blog, 13 days ago, about the spiral stitch in granny square? This is the application. I call my outfit ...The Fairy Godmother minus the Magic Wand, hahaha.

Actually, I call it The Godmother only, then tonight I ask the opinion of my eldest sending her my picture. She suggested the name the Fairy Godmother because she said I look like one. Hmm, do I?

Photoshoot by my daughter, Jewel in front of Jurich Crochet Studio same time our house.

Behind the scene while shooting: ho my, she let me pose, pose and pose hahaha.

The Construction

The fairy godmother dress was constructed using a 2 1/4 mwidth x 2 m length preloved shawl I ordered online. Folded it and cut or slit at the center about .6m fitted my underarm. upper breast, sewed the garter all around by hand. And, attached by sewing the 10 granny square swirl stitch join as I go using a 4ply milk cotton, pale pink, for the main square and 16 ply fine cotton, fuschia pink, for the edging.

On the ninth square I was wrong with some extra stitch, solution just ignored my mistake, I did want to frogged and re do the last round,I find ways, no one will noticed it.

When I tried the granny squares my skin was almost scratch by the pins, it was good my granddaughter Alexie got it right away.

You look beautiful, Fairy Godmother!
So nice to see you and such a beautiful dress, what a lovely idea. I like the crochet trim, I must go back to your earlier post to learn how to do it. The colour is so pretty, and you are right about the error: no one will notice, even when you told us, I couldn't see it! 😍.
Have you made the dress for a special occasion?

OMG what shall I say: You are the queen of all fairy godmothers 😍 😍 😍 😍 😍 I love everything, the dress, the crochet border, the photo and your pose - this is amazing, especially the photo where you hold the dress open and one can see its wide skirt part. The green behind you let the whole scenery look like a model shoot from a fashion magazine. So beautiful.
And with the mistake… I couldn’t spot it and I am sure absolutely nobody will look at a tiny stitch when you are wearing this dress <3

Ahahaha thanks much, Even me can not believe this is the result of simply redoing the shawl. Yes, the smallest mistake can't be noticed.
