Sew the Fairy Dreams Dress Up Pattern with Me

This month in the Pattern Club, we’re sewing a whimsical costume set designed for storytelling and connection. The Fairy Dreams Dress Up pattern includes four accessories made with quilting cotton: a petal skirt, a pair of soft fairy wings, a ribbon-tied crown, and a star wand.

Each piece is structured using fusible fleece and interfacing, which gives it a soft but durable finish that’s perfect for children. The full set is beginner-friendly and can be sewn in pieces if you prefer to make it one step at a time.

I designed this pattern using prints from the Thimbelina collection, which brings softness, floral texture, and a touch of magic to each piece.


What You’ll Learn

The Fairy Dreams Dress Up pattern introduces techniques for:

  • Sewing with fusible fleece and interfacing
  • Creating structured costume pieces with cotton
  • Making clean curves, smooth petal edges, and even turning points
  • Attaching ribbon ties and layering decorative shapes

Whether you’re new to sewing or looking for a creative seasonal project, this is a gentle and rewarding pattern to follow.


A Bonus to Spark Play

This month’s printable bonus is a set of Fairy Wand Action Cards, created to turn your finished costume into a movement-based storytelling experience.

The cards include simple prompts like “Leap like a fairy” and “Make a wish with your wand.” Just print and cut, and you’re ready for an afternoon of imagination. These are great for playrooms, classrooms, or birthday surprises.
