Then once I get some nice photos for 'thumbnail buttons', I can release the first albums of 2015. In the meantime I'm working on the new albums even though there are no links to them yet.
Now that Lisa has her own sewing kit, and it's her birthday at the end of the month, she wants to learn to sew by making herself a pretty dress for her birthday. That sounded like a great idea, so I took her to Fabricland so she could choose a pattern, and the fabric.... We picked up everything she would need.... When we got home, Lisa couldn't wait to show everyone what we had bought... "Wow, this is really beautiful! Can you make me a dress like that too?" In the meantime, I've been busy finishing off photo albums from last year. There were several folders full of photos on my desktop which either needed to be added to existing albums, or made into new ones - mostly photos of my Kaye Wiggs dolls. There's also quite a few doll outfits made last year that still need to be documented as well.

Thank you! I'm always trying to come up with new ideas for pictures, and now that I've decided to do a series of 'birthday' pictures, I can't very well do the same thing over and over, so I thought I'd make the next girl make herself a party dress.

Thanks! I figured she'd need a pattern, so made one. I used a picture of my KW Miki and Layla wearing dresses similar to the one Lisa will be making.

Lisa made a good choice, i like the fabric too. And the pattern looks very nice. I love the photos outside Fabricland too.

Thanks! It's a lovely embroidered taffeta, and I had already chosen it as another colour choice for my Kaye Wiggs Christmas dresses, but after sewing nine of those, I didn't want to make any more that size. But I thought that style would look really nice on the smaller dolls too.
