here are the most recent items i have created for the Marley dolls
These are all going to Anne from the Marley doll collectors yahoo group. It is very late, but I think she will love. the variety.
In this swap, she sent the fabric and trims, and I was to make something for her out of them. Well, i got a little carried away and added some of my own stuff.
The "onesie" (body suit) and socks are made from what appears to be fabric from a little girl's t-shirt. It's got little butterflies all over it in green, blue, purple, and a lighter shade of purple. I loved it and was hoping that there'd be enough left of it to make one for my own dolls. I don't think there is enough left--sad to say. The little girl's t-shirt was for a very little girl. the jumper over the body suit was also from the fabric Anne sent me. I added the buttons down the front from my private stock of stuff, but the lace trim at the bottom was from her. Green and purple are not usually a color combination i groove to, but with the body suit, it seems to tie together pretty well.
I had some purple felt that melded nicely with the color scheme Anne had sent. she sent the butterfly 'buttons' which i put on the front and the 'dragonfly' buttons I sewed onto the back. i htink the jacket turned out just darling, and I am definitely going to make some of these for my own Marley and LeeAnn dolls. I think i will make them just a little longer, however, with just a little shorter sleeves.
The purple flowered fabric for these bib overalls is mine. Anne sent the adorable pink flowers. I loved those. Next time i go to JoAnn fabrics, i am going to look for some for myself. I wish i had made the bib just a little higher.
These capri pants are cute--I haven't made a shirt to match them yet.
I made a pair of long pants out of the same fabric. They look pretty good with the little jacket.
Here's the back of the jacket with the dragon flies.
I love to sew for these dollies.

How very cute.
BTW I love that color combination. The cool tones: blue, teal, aqua, green, lavendar, purple. I have more batik fabrics in those combos because I just can't resist it.
And those knee high socks are just darling. You must have such patience.
Re: How very cute.
Thank you. :D
I don't know about patience...it just relaxes me. And I figure out ways to make different things. The knee socks weren't that hard.
I can't ever just sit and do nothing or I will fall asleep. At least sewing doll clothes keeps me awake.
