Peasant dress



When I got my son, I was so happy! I fell in love in his little hands and legs, and I love him more and more each day. Then, I had got daughter and realize another dream…girls are so sweet for dressing! She was 6 months old, when I sewed her first dress. 


This weekend we spent in taking photos.



Peasant dresses are great for hot days, same as for a little bit colder days. 



You can find Tutorial and Pattern on SEW much ado. Pattern on blog is for 0-3 months old babies, and you can proportional increase it, depends of age of your girl.

Lalaloopsy Doll



Asja loves Lalaloopsy dolls, but, they are very expensive (for me), so I decided to make one for her. This one is "original", because all Lalaloopsy dolls are inspired with rag dolls. And I made this, pretty recycling doll. 

Basic

Pattern, a little bit imprecisely, but OK.


Head, torso, hands and legs made from my old white dress.


It seems like this, when I sewed the pieces and twisted them in the face.


Then I fill them up (with the old pillow filling), each leg and hand independent, then head and torso, and put all pieces together.


Later, I removed "first look", and put silk socks (colore- nude), over head and torso, so I make appropriate color for the face. I didn't do that with hands and legs, it was very complicated. I only stitched again hands, this time better, because it didn't look good from the first try.


Hair

Most of the time I spent on hair. 


I packed hair based on picture given below. 


You make hair in two parts, plus ponytails.

Suit

Suit is you choose, whatever you want. I made blouse, skirt and scarf from some old fabrics. Oh yes, tights!


Tights was very sweet, I made it from Asjas old tights.


This is final product. You can add some accessories, bows, hair pins... Of course, with black pen draw famouse Lalaloopsy eyelashes. I hope Asja will love it.
