For the most part it's simple sewing, nothing too fancy or hard.<br />Designs by Jude gives DeeAnna's measurements as 8 inch bust, 5 and 3/8 inch waist, and 8.5 inch hips. If you convert cm to inches, you'll find JID are a bit larger in each area. Not impossible, but more work. Still, it's good to have a pattern to start from. :)balljointedwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01335507007679704323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-49207253781237109142016-02-26T07:50:14.240-05:002016-02-26T07:50:14.240-05:00Very pretty, love the fabric choice and the little...Very pretty, love the fabric choice and the little flower trim. I love to see your sewing projects and the pictures of your in progress work ^^<br /><br />Maybe I need to check if Deeanna patterns work for large and medium bust JID iplehouse. I have a couple of them and the mesurements are similar. I will need to adapt the waist, but I think this is easy to do.Mayumihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12754832625931098567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-43055194843769371472016-02-25T19:44:56.743-05:002016-02-25T19:44:56.743-05:00Thank you!

The last two girls are a bit less curvy, which makes more patterns possible. I have begun work on one that pairs a bustier with a mermaid skirt. It will need lengthening, but I won't know where until I finish the muslin to see at what point the skirt flares. It's for one of the slimmer girls. I'll show a progress report in my next blog post.balljointedwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01335507007679704323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-54213446918580586632016-02-25T12:14:35.787-05:002016-02-25T12:14:35.787-05:00Very Jane Austen, good job :) I imagine it's a...Very Jane Austen, good job :) I imagine it's a challenge to sew for the raccoon girls since they are so small but curvy.ResinRapturehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15691864206775424671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-9526542842385230352016-02-23T10:57:44.455-05:002016-02-23T10:57:44.455-05:00I once purchased a very lightweight blouse at Good...I once purchased a very lightweight blouse at Goodwill that I wanted to cut up for dolls. I did get a couple of "almost outfits" out of it, but it was impossible to work with and everything ended up in a bag.

Of course in my case things get cut out and put into baggies, and that is it. :D So I love seeing your finished clothing!Fishcakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04129239011581997070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-51019600800162735512016-02-22T10:11:42.511-05:002016-02-22T10:11:42.511-05:00I look forward to seeing your regency project--I t...I look forward to seeing your regency project--I think this is a period many people love!<br />Luckily I wasn't planning to make the dress in muslin. I was only testing for size and fit. The fabric made that difficult to do.balljointedwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01335507007679704323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578199390588638100.post-18797919190811067242016-02-22T05:58:41.170-05:002016-02-22T05:58:41.170-05:00This is so pretty!!

I love this period as much as late victorian!<br /><br />Maybe the muslin doesn't work for doll sizes but it will drape/hang just fine on the amount of fabric needed for a human. I have found that this happens with a lot of fabrics: even if they are thin enough, they are not heavy enough to fall and gather nice in dolls.Musumehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11618279915398182364noreply@blogger.com
