Doll clothing self-challenge: Clothing Storage (pg. 21)

[Salli]

 

I am loving all of the photos!! Everyone is doing so well, I am so proud of you!

Maddie, that outfit is super cute. I need one like that to go with my red-striped stockings! Keep up the great work everyone!

Remember, we have til Saturday to finish up I did have a question for everyone: in the furniture self-challenge I alternated between bigger projects and smaller. Do you guys want to do that?

If so do you want to do belts or earrings or socks/stockings next? Or just make an accessory in general?
If not, what clothing item should be next? Dress or tops?

Hmmm i am not really interested in doing any furniture.:/  But maybe someone else is?

Maybe i will just keep an eye out for clothing challenges.

Loving all the pictures! What great inspiration! I'm so stoked about this thread, Salli!

I adore the holidays but I do get so behind in the studio! I have been wanting to do a specific style skirt for ages. Yay for challenges!

  Accessories in general sound good to me; I've got a pair of stockings that I need to whip out real quick before my festive mood fades. Also, I think switching back and forth between simple projects and more advanced is brilliant.

I like the idea of switching if up. I need some stockings made up to.

I threw together a skirt last night, I was trying to be creative and nothing was working so I was desperate for something to show and made a very simple sock skirt. It's not too bad, I'll have to try to get a picture of it in here later. With all the time spent trying to figure out an "easy" skirt I could have just made an actual ligitimate one. Ah well, lesson learned.

[kCherry]

This one doesn't count but I thought I'd throw it up here anyways since Carol Anne has been wearing it all season.

  I also made Larkin a quick "kilt" on Christmas day, (It's not really a kilt just a measure of fabric pinned around his waist. ) I put it on him and called it a skirt only to get corrected very quickly by my Scottish hubby, "It's a Kilt!"

hee hee hee

I'm working on it...  although it didn't end up going where I had orginally planned.  What else is new when I'm sewing, LOL?

So cute! I love all of these skirts!! 

Cherry, I am making a kilt too! and here I thought I was so original lol. Not that I'm the only one who has a kilt for my dollie. I finished my bee girl's 'poodle' skirt but I need to move the applique up since I ended up making the hem higher than I originally planned. I want to make one for the blob girl when I get her but I can't decide what to applique on her skirt when I get her. The other skirts are in progress...

Repulsive, I just meant flip flopping the big and small challenges like I did in the furniture challenge I did on the dollhouse, not that we would make furniture here.

Sounds like socks/stockings are next after the skirt challenge ends on Saturday (We'll probably do tops after that just in case you want time to order or make a pattern.)

I'm still loving the new entries, nice work, everyone!
still not much progress here :/ I'm going to an important job interview tomorrow morning and I just couldn't concentrate and/or succeed in sewing for fun. but I will do it, just let that interview be over already :3

I'd also love a stockings challenge to be the next one, that's somehting I wanted to do recently, having found some appropriate materials, but with everything I have piled up I will just keep on procrastinating without a little pressure involved

I'm also going to have to test how the methods of ^ this "cheat sheet" for making skirts.

[Loona]

wow, that video of the tutu is AWESOME! many thanks for the link Lon-san, I'll definitely try it out <3

[NovelNerd]

I have never made socks or stockings. Hmm what type of material should I buy for stockings? Any specific type when I o to Hancocks Weds?

[bewilderness]

Everyone's skirts are looking so awesome. ^_^

  Great minds think alike! I'd love to see it when you're done, especially if you go with pleats; I'm a big chicken at this stage and went with a nice, straight "sports kilt" for my boy. LMAO Who cares, though! He's not nakie anymore and he looks very manly in plaid!

  Yayy!! Stockings next!!!! I may go a little nuts and make several pair; leg warmers count, yah? They're sure gonna for me!

OMG!! Lon-San, I Absolutely adore My Froggy Stuff!!! I am working on her pumpkin dollhouse right now for my tinies and I'm sure I'll be doing one of her sweaters and a robe soon, too!! She has the coolest doll channel! So cute!


I'm Lovin' this challenge!
