Project Roundup

Sarah’s local bookstore is getting a renovation, so I’ve been doing a lot of planning for that at the moment. Below is where I’m at right now; I need more paper for the door, and there’s stuff I still need to decide on for the window and sign. But I do love the window in…… Continue reading Project Roundup

I first saw Tiffany’s new pants in an op shop, and I instantly knew that she’d love them. They had a tied or elasticated waist, which I’ve replicated as best as I can in miniature. The original had the stripes printed onto the fabric, which I recreated with pieces of ribbon sewn onto the fabric…… Continue reading Orange Stripes

Petra’s getting in the Christmas spirit with this simple wreath t-shirt. It’s made up of two branches intertwined in a circle, with little gold knots in amongst them. I’m really happy with how detailed the foliage is! She helped Sarah and I decorate the Christmas tree this year, because it’s useful to have a tall…… Continue reading Christmas T-Shirt

For Tiffany’s next project, she will take this red jersey…. ….and turn it into a cute singlet top! Because it’s all jersey, and thus nice and stretchy, it has no velcro in the back; it’ll slide on from her feet. It’s definitely nice and cool, and the dark red colour is festive too! I think…… Continue reading Red Jersey

“Hey Petra! I got this pink corduroy in the mail for the shop, and I thought it would look great as a pair of shorts for you. What do you think?” Petra said yes, and a week later, we have our result! Because the corduroy’s a bit thick, Tiff used a pink floral cotton in…… Continue reading Summer Sewing

As the solid foundation my dolls stand on, their shoes are pretty important. Tiffany and Petra had been using some of Sarah’s shoes, but she wanted them back for summer. So! Now Tiff and Petra have their own shoes. Tiffany’s are as close to a pair of runners as I could get, with the lower…… Continue reading Solid Grounding

Tiffany’s summer wardrobe is slowly expanding with the addition of this pleated skirt. These pleats were so hard! It’s very tricky to keep them even, but at least I tried. I am happy with the waistband, though! Maybe I just need to iron the pleats again. Perhaps they’ll behave a little better. I think next…… Continue reading Summer Yellow

Summer Pinafore

Summer Pinafore

November 1, 2020 Posted in Doll Stuff, Sewing5 Comments

Petra requested a denim pinafore for summer, which was the perfect opportunity to continue practicing skirt-making. I tried something different with the back because of fabric constraints, which I think looks quite good. The front panel is perhaps a little bit wide, but I don’t think it’s too big of a deal. I enjoy taking…… Continue reading Summer Pinafore

From flat fabric…. ….to fab(ulous) skirt! This skirt is our first ventures into the uncharted lands of skirt-making. It, of course, has pockets, and does up in the back with a hook and eye closure. At first, I thought it was very stiff, and flat across the front, but now looking at the photos…. ….I…… Continue reading The First Skirt

As the weather has slowly been heating up, I figured I’d get ahead of the game and start making some proper hot weather clothes for Tiffany and Petra. Starting here, with Tiffany’s new outfit! Tiff made the shirt herself, and she made sure to give it a nice, wide neckline for summer. I upcycled the…… Continue reading Warm Weather Gear
