Everything to Scale

I'm trying to practice my clothing and accessory designs. I love sewing, upcycling, knitting, etc. Right now I'm focused mostly on custom handmade doll clothing

After the vendor sale, I still have many pride bracelets in stock. Any of these will be $4 without shipping.

I still have all shown and can still make custom orders (depending on bead type and size the price may be different).

If you have any questions or would like one, feel free to message me!

Throwback to my favorite doll customization I have done. I made her face, hair, and all of her clothes. I'd love to work on some more micro-knitting. Sorry for my lapse. I recently broke my ankle 🙃. I still need a little time to heal so I will be back on the 31st with new content. See you guys soon!

A wip shot of a new project I'm knitting. Used a bubble stitch I found on ravelry. I love the texture it has and I love the bright colors

My first fully knitted stuffed animal! I used the pattern from an archived joanns page called oso cute bears (linked below). I made 2 matching bears for some of my friends. The second photo is a wip for the second bear Using an eyelash yarn turned out so well (sew well =]).

Buy Oso Cute Bears and other Crocheting Projects supplies from Joann.com. Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Store sells all your Idea Center needs.

Here is an update on my wip the rose pants. Working with a satin stitch to fill. You can see some of the issues I ran into with the paper I used. It got stuck in some of the stitches and caused some tension issues. But I'm happy with how it is turning out!

I was so upset when this hoodie started loosing its logo. It's from a local coffee shop in Kamms Corner called Common Grounds. I realized it would be the perfect subject to practice. I started with hand-sewing the logo back on. It's just a running stitch but the texture of the logo was a bit odd. I have a lot of plans for this one and I'm very excited.

A little update from my darning project. Couldn't stand the color I picked, so I figured give everyone something else to look at.

Tried drawing and pining a design to my jeans. Honestly would have been easier to draw on them with chalk or just buy embroidery transfers. Wish me luck on how it turns out!

Successfully tried darning. The floss stood out more than I liked. First time the weave came out so clean!

Not sure if #throw back Thursday is still a thing but this little ornament was too cute to not show.

This was a secret santa gift I made for some friends (pardon the censor) and their cat Murray (a rising star who doesn't mind the attention).

Hey this is something new! Sorry for the lull my classes are killing me. This is the draft of my final for one of my classes. Hopefully in the next couple of days I will be able to upload the finished version of this. I think I'm going to post more of my work here? Tell me what you guys think!

Ok, let’s start describing this longer pleated dress. I had a lot of fun editing this pattern.

First thing I shouldn’t have done. This was an extremely lightweight jersey I had leftover from a school project. It started off as a barbie pattern but I had to totally revamp the pleat sizes. You can definitely tell I need to make the waist smaller next time (especially in the back view picture). I did try to just have two velcro dots to secure it. Next time I might try to do it similarly to the last skirt next time because it isn’t as strong. Oh and I’m trying to get used to this new sewing machine and its strange tension issues (you can definitely see it round the bottom hem). But overall I’m pretty happy with how this turned out.

Scheduling?

Hi, another update post. I’m trying to decide how I would like to schedule my posts. I’m thinking about having 2 posts a week. One would be focused on doll clothes/accessories, the other about a doll I’m actually working on. Some of these posts might be photos or updates and others would be more like the muslin mock skirt post. I’m also working on some how-to posts or more process posts. I'm thinking the best days for me to post are Tuesdays at the same time as usual (8 o’clock). See you soon!

Muslin Mock Skirt

Ok, this is the first piece I ever made for monster high dolls and I’m gonna talk a little about the process down below.

This piece was a bit of a rough start. I’m going to go through my mistakes from least to most damming. I honestly like how the back lap turned out. The back is closed with small circular velcro dots. They hold pretty well even though the stitching was weird. I had to force my needle through plastic and the glue on it. It also can look a little bulky or strange. At this point, I didn’t have a sewing machine so this was sewn by hand. I wasn’t as worried about the stitches showing since I was mostly just practicing the pattern. I also tried to fit the skirt where I would like to wear a skirt. If I wanted to do this I would have to make the skirt much wider to go around her hips easier and add some volume. I think the main issue I had with it was the fact that monster high dolls had such extreme proportions that I didn’t take into account. The hips were much more dramatic, so it didn’t have the volume I wanted. Though I might recreate this pattern as a pencil skirt.
