Doll clothes again (gasp!)
Dec. 21st, 2018 11:33 amYes, I have again made something for one of my dolls. Something that is a part of a larger project.
Arabella has got herself a pair of 18th century stays.



I think that I got a little overwhelmed by the idea that all outfits had to be made in four copies since I have four dolls who are (very unlike looking) sisters. But then I decided that I can make them outfits from different periods or regions. So Sophia (the blond one) is getting a German 16th century gown, Ginevra (the redhead) will get a Tudor or Elizabethan outfit and Elizabeth (the black haired one) will get a 1660s gown.
At least that's the current plan.
And yes, it was a pain to sew the tabs and boring to make the lacing holes. Next thing to make is a panier or possibly a pair of pocket hoops.
