One of the things I like to do is to cut down girls' clothes for fabric for doll clothes. I usually get the clothes from tag sales and thrift stores. Every year, a church near me has a bag sale that I ransack for suitable things. Last year I got 4 different girls striped t-shirts that I finally had the time to turn into doll clothes.
Kana and Lily are both wearing polo dresses made with the pattern from DollDuds. Each tshirt had just enough fabric for one polo shirtdress, with some scraps left over that might get turned into something small and decorative.
I also wanted to try out some pants (LJ capris and bermuda shorts) patterns, so I made some extra preppy polo shirts and khakis. Bot the polo shirts (pattern by DollDuds) and the v neck t-shirts (pattern by LJC) are cut from the same girls shirt, just so I could make sure all the stripes matched up properly.
Nice! They all look lovely!
