My first memory of Star Wars was watching
the scenes on Endor with my dad, so Ewok
Village Leia has been in the works for almost
30 years!

I used JediJainaSolo (Sarah Townsend) 's
amazing pattern for the dress. And a huge
thank you to Sarah for the images of the
sandals! I used the Hermes Sandals and
covered the heel caps with suede.

I used cow suede as the pig suede pieces
weren't large enough to fit the pattern pieces.
Putting an invisible zipper into cow suede is an
interesting experience!

I spent a lot of time staring at the images of
this dress in the Star Wars Costumes book to
make the sleeve pattern.
