More Willie Outfits

3/29/2019

I decided Willie needed something to better go with Phairby's more elegant costumes. Her little 'Yoda' style nature outfit is fine for running around in the woods, but I decided she needed something else for a little nicer casual wear. She's not exactly 'elegant', so I'm making her two different coloured outfits inspired by the kind of thing the Witch from Hansel and Gretel would wear. Something one would wear if they lived in a 'gingerbread' house....

The dresses will get lacing up the front, and lace around the neck, as well as a sewn-in underskirt.   I'm not sure yet what style of hat I'll make for each of them. I think it would be fun to make one like a witch's hat. Anyways, this time I'm being proactive, and making three of each right up front.

Both dresses are so cute (and tiny!). Willie be as adorable at home as in the forest.

TINY is definitely the operative word here!

But I'm past the worst part, which is inserting the tiny sleeves into the tiny bodices. Skirts and finishing isn't so bad. And then comes my favourite part - the hats.

The funny thing is these super tiny outfits sell super fast, but they don't make even a dent in my fabric stash. I think I probably have enough fabric to make ten million such little things. Maybe even a billion! Which is never going to happen! I'm definitely going to have to make some bigger things if I'm serious about using up my stash.
