Well, it's taken me four days to go through my considerable fabric stash and decide on some colour schemes for the upcoming dark fairies. I have an old 'peasant' skirt, printed in purple, black, olive and gold, which I'm going to use as the base for three different fabric combinations....
I'm thinking of making two outfits in each colour combo, and they will be made to fit Iplehouse JIDs, and Kaye Wiggs MSDs, since that's the most popular size. I'm looking forward to start cutting everything out, but first I need to finish the messy part of the cake making, which is currently taking up most of my kitchen table. I have four cakes on the go, and am still in the process of 'icing' them with drywall compound. The dark green bottom layer of one of the cakes, will be covered with Sculpey 'fondant', so is wood covered with florist tape, since you can't bake styrofoam in the oven. I've learned that I can't add Sculpey directly onto the wooden disc, since it separates and cracks during baking, but it won't if covered by gluing on a layer of florist tape first...
