Brick by Brick, Of Course ...

How else would you build a princess castle? ;-)
And every princess deserves a fancy door for her castle right? It's important to make a proper first impression when guests come along.

It was fun to fussy cut that Jennifer Paganelli fabric for the door (actually double doors). As I was going through the fabric I had to use, the idea just kind of struck me. I also love the arches in the fabric which were perfect as molding for the door and windows.

I made the bricks from sewn strips, sliced them up and sewed them back together with off center placement to create the staggered look you see. This has taken a lot of thinking to piece together so far, but it has been a great challenge!
