And finally, a picture of Peach in her 'Princess' dress. She wanted to be Cinderella,

She is a beautiful Cinderella! I think this is the prettiest Peach has ever looked. The style and colour of her dress and the way her hair curls around her face is lovely.

Thanks! But I don't know about this girl. Something always seems to be 'off' with her. It's like 'her look' is always just out of reach. So I went to the trouble to make her a Cinderella dress, but it doesn't help. I thought my Lisa looked so much better in it. I even got Peach a new wig, but I think she still looks best with a hat. I hate to admit it, but I much prefer my other two KID girls.

It is so hard when it is impossible to actually connect with a particular doll....isn't it? *sigh*

I don't know how long I will try. I feel guilty even thinking of selling her. I guess it's the 'perfectionist' in me, not willing to admit I might have made a mistake. To me Peach looks best either in the Victorian outfit, or something summery and contemporary with a hat. I'm starting a series of Fantasy outfits for my smaller dolls, and maybe she'll work in one of those. I also thought maybe she would look good as a Medieval girl. Of course then she wouldn't fit with the others any more - unless I make some of the others matching period clothes.

That is a truly beautiful dress...Peach got her wish to be Cinderella!

Thanks! I think I'm 'over-compensating' in my attempts to do right by her. Her cake is a masterpiece too - way more elaborate than any others so far. Comments are closed.
