Dollie's clothes

She is a little happy to have bottoms, it was a great relief to finally make clothes for Dollie.

Little cloth Nappies, I made them with terry toweling inside and a cotton print outside. (of course there was a cupcake cotton in my stash)

The sides are un-even which cracks me up no measurements here.

Candy stripes. Look at that little belly.

I had a little scrap of material left from another project and it was perfect for this little skirt. Which I added the lace at the bottom from a dear friend.

I also have added little hand stitched flowers to the shoes, she is still topless but not for long.

No Hair, to this!

Well if she looses some it won't make much of a difference as Dollie has heaps. It took a whole afternoon yesterday and on and off today.

 I stitched every single strand on by hand, I didn't want to leave any spots without hair so the back is beautiful and thick and if you move it around you will see no gaps. It is amazing that she can sit up.

I knitted her a little cap and sewed that to her head, then I used a whole ball and a little of a second to finish it off.

She just needs some clothes, oh man her hair, she is wild but it is great. Oh and I have finished the blanket just need to block it and it is ready for it's new home.

She got legs

Poor Dollie, she has legs but I decided to undo her toes they just looked funny. I added a little blush per the instructions but that may have to leave too. Just not sure if she needs it.

She just needs her hair and some clothes and she is ready for a June Birthday party.  I thought about putting her in a big box and tying balloons around her arm so when Sophia opens the box the balloons fly out, as I am thinking I will have Dora and Boots holding balloons on the birthday cake.

I was told she needed a dimple on her Bum so here it is. I am thinking I will re-do her legs too, they maybe a little too low as she doesn't sit on her bottom.

I have Arms!

But no Legs, I am getting there, as I have no sewing room and I take over the lounge with Craft it isn't pleasing to everyone. So I packed it up and it only comes out when no-one is around. It is quite hard to do, pack up your craft when that is all you want to do. She (Dollie) as I have starting calling her will have her legs by tomorrow and I will start on her hair at Mishi Yarns on wednesday.

I found the fingers a little odd to do, if I make another one I will do it a little different.

I couldn't help myself but to take a photo of Dollie and a cupcake. LOL
