I continue to work on the teensie Forest Dweller outfits. I chose a salt-dye turquoise for the Chipmunk girl's dress, and a gray floral, striped, print for the apron... The pieces are so small that many things need to be sewn by hand, and everything has to be basted by hand first before it can be run under the sewing machine.... But I finished it.... So that's two done....and three more to go....

Thanks. They are TINY! The mouse and Chipmunk are just 10 cm tall (including their ears). The absolute hardest thing is setting in the sleeves - first by hand, and then by machine. Usually at least one needs the machine stitching picked out, and done over.
