I appreciate that you have gone to such hard work in making Aletha's Dress. No dress could have suited her better. She is lucky to have you to fuss over her and the other dolly's.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07165693001910322264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651354379965973405.post-39583456991412333262014-06-30T13:10:26.592-05:002014-06-30T13:10:26.592-05:00What a beautiful dress your Aletha will have; can&...What a beautiful dress your Aletha will have; can't blame her for peeking! I find stitching dolls' clothes fascinating, and really is why I make dolls. I have found so much inspiration from your beautifully hand-stitched doll clothes, and have learned a bundle to boot. My favorite book on this subject is "Sewing Victorian Doll Clothes ~ Authentic Costumes from Museum Collections" by Michelle Hamilton. I think you would love it. And, for sure, I am looking forward to your next tutorial!Hill Top Posthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12417478558713036325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651354379965973405.post-34227331391059824462014-06-29T07:00:40.643-05:002014-06-29T07:00:40.643-05:00I always love to see your hand sewing, Sherri.

I have that back issue of ADC and have looked at it many times and didn't see the wonderful construction on the dress. I will definitely make another IW doll just to use this technique.

I can barely follow a purchased pattern for sewing clothing, and could never make a one-of-a-kind style. Your work is so neat and the fabric is perfect for your doll. It does make me want to try once more.lil red henhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15494641068959278096noreply@blogger.com
