Did you know there are only 71 days until Christmas!?
Have you started your Christmas sewing? :-)
My friend is all finished for this year and has started on gifts for next year!~ I am NOT that fast or organized! LOL
But I have started. Actually, I have over half of the things I wanted to make finished. Sorry, I can't show those yet because the recipients will see. ;-)
But I can show you one of the things I have been working on for my DGD.
18" doll clothes. :-)
These still need snaps and a few things, but~
I am just tickled at how well they have turned out. My friend sent me a book she found in a thrift store with the patterns for the clothes, as for the undies~
(aren't they just a hoot?!)
The pattern was from an on-line designer who buys underwear and takes the elastic off to use in her doll clothes and cuts the undies from the larger pairs. I thought it was super clever! If you want to know her name or link let me know, I don't have the info handy right now. Or if you would like the name of the book. ;-)
I have a few more outfits I would like to make. I sent a Halloween outfit and forgot to take a pic. Oops. I have some fabric for a party dress yet. It is so funny~ I was dreading sewing the clothes and have discovered I love it! LOL
Have a great weekend!

I am so glad you did this and found a book besides! I used individual patterns and they were a lot of work! I love the skirts and the undies are adorable. Great job on doing your gifts. Glad you took some pictures. K- lkw2x6-apq@yahoo.com
Those are adorable, I have a book with different styles and periods of doll clothes, its been years since I made any.
