Frock

Fairly pleased with this one, a couple of feckups aside.

Inspired by this dress and using this tutorial for the army bit at the top. Fabric from an old dress that hasn't fitted me for years.

Fashionistas: Summer (Dolllllllssssss)

Summer arrived in the post, she is quite cute. She has these insane silver boots and some sort of pink (of course) sports dress. She came in a box about twice as big as what necessary, maybe Amazon were aiming to confuse me. Still it is a box and hopefully I will find some use for it.

Also acquired: snap fasteners and about a metre of white meshy fabric from the remnants box in the haberdashery.

Off With Her Head!

I successfully swapped dollheads! I had these fears based on childhood that I'd break the attachment thingies trying, but I persevered anyway and Summer has now been swapped with one I've decided to call Savannah (yeah, most of them have no names, I'm working on that). My reasoning was that Summer is a bit too Smiley-All-American and Savannah has a bit more mystery to her expression by which I mean any at all. She has really long straight hair to her waist, which is impressive because it means she's avoided all my attempts at hair styling. I can't remember when I got her, it was a few years ago.

I just really like the Fashionista bodies because of how they can at all move. Now I have a magical hybrid doll that maybe nobody else has, how nifty is that?
