Sewing Sunday

 This Sewing Sunday I turned a girl's dress into a cute doll dress. I couldn't resist the cute fox print and Rebecca insisted on modeling it for me. 

 Rebecca looks so sweet here!

 

I originally planned on leaving Rebecca's hair down but recently her hair has a lot of flyaways so I decided to put her hair into a ponytail- and I love the result!  

What have you been sewing (or admiring ) recently? 

Thanks for looking!, 

Maisey's OOTD

I didn't plan on this being an outfit of the day post but it fit Maisey's personality. This was my first time making the Liberty Jane baseball t-shirt pattern, and I love it! 

 

Flower Crown: Claire's 

Baseball T-shirt: Made by me! 

Jeans: AG 

Shoes: AG 

Maisey really does look great in everything (so far) I have tried on her! I really love how cute she looks with flowers in her hair, it suits her perfectly.   

Do you like OOTD? Should I do more?

Sewing Sunday

 Hi! I feel like it's been so long since a Sewing Sunday post has appeared here, so I felt like it was time for another one. Yesterday I listed two new items in my shop, one dress and a sweater! I haven't had much time lately to sew or blog but I was able, thanks to a 3 day weekend, catch up on blog posts and spend a little time sewing. 

 

I absolutely love this fabric, a lightweight knit that looks great on dolls. This was so much fun to make and for some reason this looks like a dance outfit to me. 

 

Using upcycled materials I made this cute knit sweater, perfect for cold winter days, I love the stretch knit lace! 

So it looks like for now 1 post a week here is about all of the extra time I have. Thankfully my daily schedule is straightening out and I can balance schoolwork, the musical,dance and sewing/blogging better! Hopefully whenever I have extra time I can squeeze an extra post in now and then. 

Thanks for looking!, 

Charlotte's Sweater

With a bit of Christmas money I purchased a doll sweater from urimori, who also runs a blog here. When it arrived Charlotte instantly claimed it, and you can see why below- 

 

 

I love this hairstyle!

 

Can I please have this sweater in my size?  

I love the materials used to create this piece such as Italian wool and, of course, the adorable faux suede in chestnut brown! Did I mention that it's super soft?  

I think I might just have caught the Etsy bug ^-^

Meet Maisey!

 Hi! Today I wanted to introduce to you one of my favorite Christmas gifts I received, Truly Me #58! Believe it or not, she is my very first doll I have ever received as a Christmas gift, the rest were birthday or I bought them :) Deciding her name only took about 5 minutes? With the help of family I decided on the name Maisey, and suddenly I figured out her personality!  

But, let me first show you her-

 

I decided her middle name would be Bee! It suits her and I can't wait to begin working on a "Bee" inspired bedroom for her!

 

 

Maisey loves plants (especially flowers!) and of course, bees.

 

Her favorite thing to do is smile.

  

Her favorite jewelry item is a simple strand of pearls. 

 

Maisey also loves finding and collecting vintage buttons. 

 

Her favorite colors to wear are jewel tones, and she almost never goes without a flower in her hair.

 

Her favorite activity is sketching and bird watching! 

 

Maisey was delivered by mail, and I was worried that she might have a defect but she is perfect! Her curls are so adorable and I love finger curling them, they add a lot of personality.   

She is also my very first Addy mold.

One other, kind of doll related item that I used Christmas money to buy is a 50mm Nikon lens! This was one of my first photoshoots I used the lens and I love it :)  

I'm very thankful to receive two of my most wanted items.
