So I've been slowly getting my dolls ready for the upcoming wedding. After making the three flower girl dresses, the next project was to make a new 'formal' top for Rex. I'd already made new, formal tops for Baron and Lawrence back at Christmas, but hadn't gotten around to Rex yet.
Back when I made his knight costume, I had started a tunic out of a blue brocade, but I decided that the pattern was too 'bright', so started over using the same fabric, but on the wrong side where the pattern wasn't as strong. I still had that rejected tunic, and decided to use it instead of starting from scratch.
So I finished the collar, adding a tiny white ruffle at the neck, and made under-sleeves.

Then with his surcoat over it, and he's ready to attend the wedding.
The whole time he was standing in my work space while I was working on his new top, he insisted on holding one of the babies I was also working on at the time....
He held that baby for almost two weeks, and every day Jan would comment on how he must be getting really sore arms. LOL Personally, I think Rex just likes babies.
