I’m almost finished with Maryellen’s dress set. It’s almost been like making 2 different dresses…almost! But I’m on the homestretch now. It won’t be long! :o)
I went to town today and when I got home, my hubby had mulched the leaves in the yard. Oops… I was going to take some pictures of Maryellen out in them… I still might take some pictures of her outside so you can see the color of the dress better. In some of my pictures the color is spot on… and others it’s a bit on the dull side. The fabric is very pretty!
I got the snaps all sewn back on the skirt and waist section of the dress… (just between you and me, I’ve had my fill of sewing on snaps for a while!) :o)
The lace has been carefully sewn by hand to the underneath side of the collar…and the bow has been tied and stitched on.
I tried a strand of the fabric for her hair but it was too much matchy-matchy, so I just used the same ribbon as I had on the dress. I think it works okay.. I did have some wider wired ribbon but it was too dark brown and didn’t go at all.
I took a picture of the length of the dress at eye level so you could see where it hits on her legs.
Someone missed her slip yesterday…here it is…
…and a few ladies noticed I changed her shoes from black to brown… I knew I had some brown ones, but couldn’t find them. When I undressed Julie to send her dress to the winner, there they were…on Julie…duh… Her shoes aren’t included but her socks are!
Since my hubby mulched the leaves, we improvised and used some leaves inside…
…anyone spot the kitty?
I still haven’t figured out her storyline but hopefully I will tomorrow.
Thanks everyone,
See you Monday,
Blessings, Jeanne
