Wearables First try at making clothes

    1. Hey guys, I thought I would share some photos of an outfit I made for my little Jax. It's not perfect and I ended up cheating by using her magnet to hold the straps down :XD: and only a few stitches to hold the skirt (I made this at one thirty in the morning so laziness is to be had xD), but I like how it turned out and I'm happy she is no longer naked.
      I didn't use a pattern and it was made with a lot of cutting, bad words and then very carefully putting the finale stitches in the skirt whilst the doll wore it to make it tight enough to fit.

      I am hoping to draft a pattern for this and make it using a better material then calico but it does the trick for now :celebrate

      And here she is snuggled back up with my Loki Hot Toy who she has claimed as hers and refuses to sit anywhere else. I don't think Loki is impressed...

    2. Oh my gosh, that's TOO cute, I love it! :D And she looks so dainty and ladylike at the feet of Mr. Loki, hehe, I think she should stay there. Admittedly, your first outfit is much more sophisticated than mine was! Looks like that fabric might be hard to stitch/hem, due to the unraveling-- I had the same problem. Here's hoping I get to see your 2.0 version of this outfit!

    6. I love the style you went with. The baby in rags kinda thing. It makes her look so innocent and sad and yet, you can tell there's a hint of content within.

    7. Once you hem it (which if you know only a little hand sewing should be okay) it will look so cool and its less likely to unravel! :) Still right now it's very cute!

    8. Hi all, this is the second dress I made for her, I think that this will be the one she keeps we are both in love with it, and it goes well with Loki's outfit.

    9. The material is a lot nicer, however you still need to hem it! :) Love the emerald green though!

    10. I love how the green material matches the green on her ears! That was a great color choice. The rag type style is really cute! I don't know if you want to try a more finished looking look, but hemming the edges and ironing the fabric can go a long way into making something look more finished

    11. Thanks for the feedback guys, I am working on learning how to hem stuff in a way that still makes it look raggedy and sorta shoved together quickly which is Kiki's style. Soon she'll be going off for a faceup and body blushing, just arguing with her over her tail being green like her ears lol.
