for several party dresses also under construction.
I was going to change my small dolls into cooler sundresses, since with this never-ending heat wave, it just makes me way too hot to look at them in their tights and long sleeves. But they'd need something to wear under their sundresses. I had a few panties, but needed quite a few more, so started to make some. But then I decided that little girls don't just wear little white undies under dresses anymore. That time has long gone. They are much more likely to wear shorts, or knee-length leggings. So I chose six colours of striped jersey to go with the six sundresses, but I made the leggings too long. I figured it would take just as long to cut the legs shorter and hem them all by hand, as it would to make a whole new pair - and I could always use the longer leggings later with something else - so I made a second, shorter set..... I still have to finish the undies I started, as well as the white tights
