Recently Sewn Doll Clothes.

[chochiyo_sama]

I fell in love with this fabric when I saw it, and I had to have a bit of it.  It worked up into darling capris pants and a "spaghetti strap" top, both of which I trimmed in fairly narrow eyelet lace.  I made the socks too.  The red canvas tennis shoes came to me by way of Dollchris Boutique.  They look just like the real thing.  They do fit better with socks on.



Here she is standing--this is "Annalee," btw.



This little cutie is an artist OOAK doll.  The outfit was made by BevBeese.  The zipper is real.  I love the sweet face on this little girl.  I wish I could remember the name of the doll artist who repainted her.

I call her "Sophie."



I loved this summer fabric as well.  I think the capris pants and the spaghetti strap top here are just so fresh and cute.  I love the color combinations and the fruit slices motifs.



This is Savannah in a sweater knitted by one of my Canadian doll collecting friends.  I made the blue jeans myself.  The shoes--again, Dollchris.



Here, Savannah models a "mini dress" with a white ruffle at the bottom and a while Annalee again models the capris and spaghetti strap top.  At first there was nothing else on the dress, but it looked so plain.  So, I added a ribbon flower with a "diamond" in the center.  Now it looks good.

Here Savannah models a jumper and Annalee models a "gypsy" skirt, a "onsie" with matching knee highs, and a white felt vest with embroidery.

These are actually destined for my doll collecting friend Anne--she sent me some fabric and some notions (like buttons, lace and trim), and I turned them into the clothese you see on this page.



Here is the hand embroidered back of the felt jacket.

      


Here is the gypsy skirt with a peasant top.  The purple jumper has gone over to be tried over the "onsie."  I made the little white purse to match the vest.



Here the purple pants are matched with a flowered blouse trimmed in the green lace and the blue flower trim. 



Here Annalee is dressed in her bibs with the purple felt jacket and the purple Halloween cat sweater I made from a sock.mmI love the way my little sock sweaters turn out.

                        


Here is the back of the purple jacket, with dragon flies on it.



A nd here is Annalee modeling the bib overalls.

That's it for the swap.  I also have a bunch of summer things for a very late "mix and match" swap.  I may have posted them before, but Idon't remember.  They turned out very cute.

Finally, a couple of Halloween outfits that I had cut out some time ago.  The yellow one   will eventually have a "onsie" style undershirt because it is too cold to run around sleeveless in Minnesota.  The pumpkin outfit turned out too darn cute for words!  I experimented with a little with white fabric.


That's the end of this entry--I keep falling asleep as I am trying to post this up.

Happily, this is the last picture, so I can go to sleep.  It's only 8:51, but my ass is draggin.
