A tail for Ariel


 
A few months ago, I promised 4 year old Bella that I would make a tail for her Ariel doll.  Today, I finally had time to devout to this task. 
 
I love a challenge but I don't know if this is something I would want to take on again: small stretchy fabric pieces, one less so than the other.  It is far from perfect: baggy, with some imperfect seams.  The perfectionist part of me wants to redo it, but the more sensible (and exhausted) part knows that it's good enough for Bella to play with.  I hope she likes it!
 
 
I couldn't have Ariel going around topless, so I made her a little tube top:
 purple, but fabric instead of shells.
 
 
The extra bagginess means that Ariel can sit down and move around when she is wearing her tail. :)
