Today I started a new fairy outfit. It's intended to be an easier to make, less expensive design, inspired by Cecily Barker's Flower Fairies. The first prototype will be yellow and orange with a green bodice - to go with the spring daffodils and dandelions. There is going to be just one ragged-edged skirt, and one set of wings for this design. I was originally going to use flower petals on the skirt, but decided to sew fabric petals instead.
I should be working on some new fancy outfits for my larger dolls, but I'm in the mood to make more outfits for Miki, and Layla, who spent a mere 6 minutes in Customs today and is on her way. And it's always better to give in to inspiration that to try and fight it and end up frustrated with nothing done. I'm sure I'll be inspired to tackle the bigger costumes eventually.
I think it's also time to remake one of my old baby dresses. I went through my boxes of sentimental baby clothes and chose several that would work very nicely.
