My logo was cut out of ribbon and the glitter embellishment was glitter glue.
A side view:
Directions:
~Please bear with the picture exposures, they were calling for rain, the sun was in and out...
Lay the felt out with long side towards you. Measure 6" across.
Cut felt in half.
You'll use the 6" piece.

Fold one of the shorter sides over 3".
As you look at this pic, the 3" side is the back of the dress,
the longer side is the front of the dress.

Find the one inch that is in the center of the fold, measure down 1/2" and draw lines for a rectangle.
This will be the start of the opening for her head.
This will be the start of the opening for her head.
As neatly as possible, cut out the rectangle of felt.
Unfold the back, draw straight lines from the square opening up the short side (back of skirt).
Cut that piece of felt out, this will be the start of the suspenders.
Leaving about 1/4" of felt on each side of the opening measure down 5", this makes suspenders and bib.
See picture above.
See picture above.
Then draw a line from the bottom of the bib to the outside, this starts forming the skirt. Cut the sides off.
Make a cut about 3/4" long 1" from each side.
Take the front of the skirt, and lay the 3/4" cut of fabric over the back.
This creates a dart and helps shape the skirt. Hot glue or sew in place. Do that for both sides.
Last three steps for skirt, in any order you're comfortable with:
Add velcro for a closure. Hot glue or sew up the back of the skirt approximately 2 1/2" (I just overlapped the felt).
Hot glue or sew suspenders to inside of skirt.
