Here is a special little project that I just worked on over this weekend! I made a sweet little dress for my tiny Betsy McCall doll from a Wren Feathers pattern. I thought it would be fun to try.
As you can see, I call it Lacy Valentine! I used red wool felt for the handsewn dress, and added lace and rick rack to the bottom. I made the flower and leaves from ribbon, added a picot-edge ribbon sash, and added a little hip decor with another ribbon flower. The straps are ribbon and her head band is wool felt.
I enjoy sewing by hand, and love to make dolls, clothes, and cute little things like bunnies and hearts!
Back view. This dress closes with a snap.
So, here she is, my Lacy Valentine!!! BTW, she is an 8" doll.
Until the next project ...
I have missed you. Good to see a post from you. The doll is just beautiful.
