Barbie in Blue

Barbie in Blue
Barbie wears my favourite colour so beautifully.  I was wandering around a fabric store when I saw this piece of material in a remnants bin.  It was so blue and sparkly, I had to buy it.  The underdress is a rich navy blue and I found glue-on rhinestones to decorate the straps.  Sometimes I think this is my favourite Barbie.
