After these three identical dresses are finished, then I'm making each of the girls another ballet costume - in pale pinks and purples this time. Then hopefully next week I'll be free to work on my own doll stuff again. Yes Santa, I'm looking at you! Will I be able to dress him after all??
I'm sewing doll clothes for my granddaughters for Christmas. I saw these short tulle 'peacock' capes at Value Village when they had all the Halloween costumes last month, and picked up three of them on clearance afterwards. Thought they'd make some nice doll dresses for the girls. It's so nice to have my own Our Generation doll to model the clothes I'm making, but it always gets me each time just how unposeable they are. Arms go up and down, and head turns from side to side, and that's about it. But she does look nice just standing there.
