My new fabrics!
I'm told the yellow silk is banana yellow. Mom and West Coast Mom actually bought a banana from a stand outside of the store and used to color match. Lol! I'm using it for Snow White's cape in Mirror Mirror.

Isn't the pink perfect? Mom used the amazing smartphone (to take these pictures) to see the picture of Snow White since I told her I wanted to re-create the bodice. Squee! So now I just need a yard or so of the shimmery organza and the appliques.

The red is exactly what I would have chosen myself if I had been at Fabric & Fabric (where I think Mom got all this). I plan on recreating Anna's Red Ball gown from Van Helsing with this fabric. For the front of the skirt, I'm using a combo of this applique (placed upside down) and this duppata. I already have the tiara. ;-)
Thank you all so much for your suggestions. Mom managed to get the yellow silk taffeta for $12 a yard, I'm told. She won't tell me the rest (it's my birthday present). I'm really excited about all the fabric and about Dress U!
