This may be my next project:



After all, if you finally get your very own AG doll for Christmas, you ought to make her something special...

This is a Christmas gift for a friend. :-)

So, yes, I took a short-sleeve knit top pattern and turned it into a long sleeve woven dress... I ought to have made the skirt flare on the side pieces a bit more dramatic, and I think the grain is a bit off in the side pieces as well, which would account for the puckering. I feel like I ought to have added a smidge more at the princess seams to make it slightly less fitted. The slits and neck V could have been a tiny bit longer. Maybe wider? They looked small in person, I thought.

The embroidery is freehand. 

My sister made the belt using the magic braid pattern and an old watch buckle. She did a fabulous job. 

And now if I ever want to make a Waterhouse-inspired doll dress...

That's kind of a sad picture of the finished ensemble, and I should get a better one, but it's taken me almost three weeks to actually write about the outfit.

So... )
