This sail dress was my very first time making/sewing my own cosplay dress (no patterns were used.) I believe the only reason why I was able to finish this dress successfully is because, there was no rules to follow in order to make this dress.

When my daughter-in-law asked if I could make my “Princess” granddaughter a mermaid costume, I was both excited and apprehensive. I was excited because this would be a chance to be creative again after a long illness which had resulted in my recent retirement from my very stressful, strenuous, and very time-consuming teaching job.
