Wearables Sewing Project: Comfy-wear/Sleepwear/Delicate Underpinnings [ Round 111 ]

Well that certinly worked well.

Teddy

 

@WintyGummyBear Oh, that turned out so pretty! I love how you chose a darker, more saturated colour instead of the typical sugary pastels that one often sees for this sort of thing. It keeps it fresh. And it fits her very well, too.

 

I've made a tiny bit more progress since taking these photos, but I'm in the process of stitching up the straps.

 

It's looking great

Teddy

 

Wow, I love this and those scissors are amazing too!

 

I haven't participated in months, but many of my dolls don't have pajamas. I'm going to make a basic summer PJ set for Taika-

 

@Idoru That looks lovely. So tiny and such a delicate fabric!

@Leo Pheonix She is cute! Looking forward to see what you make.

 

Well, it's difficult for me to do something these times because of my health (in fact because of my medications...). Maybe I won't be able to make a set for Momoko. :/ But I'm happy that I could make one for Maya. ^^

And I forgot to say, your projects are very cool ! All of you ! ^^ So beautiful things !

 

Thank you! I took an extra day off (tomorrow), and Juneteenth is now a state holiday here, so I'm hoping to make some more progress over the long weekend! The hand sewing is a bit hard on my wrist...

Aren't they cute? They were cheap, too! I just got them off of Amazon, and I'm really thrilled with them! They're perfect thread snips--I might get another pair to do wig trims, too.

Thank you! I hope it fits--I've made this pattern before, but I think I made some adjustments and I didn't... write them down of course.

It is soooo delicate... Handling it has been a real learning curve! It wants to flop around and gets twisted so easily. But worth it in the end...! (I hope, haha.)

@Leo Pheonix Can't wait to see that PJ set for Taika!

Everyone else's projects are looking great, too! I love seeing all the progress.

 

Thank you! I felt so lazy for a while. I'm glad I got something done.

Thanks!

I was thinking of using pastel fabrics but I've been using that for a lot of my project so I decided to do something different. Thanks so much!

Aww thank you!

 

The camisole is complete!




I just need to finish the shorts, which I will probably do tomorrow--this is a lot of hand sewing! My fingers could use the break.

 

So pretty! I love the little beads. They added very nice touch to the piece

 

Beautiful!

I've got a far as cutting out seven nightgowns for my girls...

Teddy

 

That is so pretty, how cleaver. You did great on this! Love the details, material, and everything about it!

 

Wow that's a lot and I'm excited to see. I always love seeing your sewing projects.

 

I follow these threads every month but haven't participated very often since what I am working on usually doesn't line up with the theme. It's not sewing but it does kinda fit the theme for once, I just finished knitting this comfy sweater, it's pretty basic but it's my first attempt at knitting anything other than socks so I'm pretty happy with it

 

Pretty! Is it from self-patterning sock yarn?

Thanks - don't know if/when I'll get around to sewing them - I spent this afternoon finishing sewing the lining into a pair of 18th Century stays for a friend, and didn't get around to any doll sewing at all.

I only got it done because I took it into the office (my one day a week not working-from-home) and took over a spare desk during my lunchbreak.

Teddy

 

What your first attempt other than socks? This is so professional, you're very talented! Love the style and colors.

 

Thank you, yes I used sock yarn since that's what I'm most familiar with

Thank you! Ive crocheted most of my life but I'm newer to knitting and have only knit myself socks before this, now I'm excited to branch out and try more stuff

 

It works well for doll sweaters, and socks of the thicker/heavier variety. Laceweight yarn works well for thinner/finer socks too. Seems like you're off to a great start with this jumper.

Teddy

 

@whooganana This sweater is looking great! Very cozy...! This is really your first attempt knitting?! It's excellent.

 

So pretty! It's always impressive to see people work with such a tiny scale.

That's a very nice sweater. I like the colours on her, especialy how well it compliments her hair. I think PoeticSoul is right, it will go with many different things.

I think I have to declare myself done for this month. I "accidentally" got talked into going to a LARP just a few weaks away and now I suddenly need to come up with a full kit for myself for a time period I've never really done before.

 

Thank you all so much! And I've only ever knit myself a few pairs of socks before this, so not my very first knit but my first time doing something different.

 

I've got the slip/underdress pinned after the darts got sewn in and the skirt was hemmed, I think it'll look nice when it's finished but until then it's just going to keep giving me aggravation, lol. But hey, this is the narrowest hem I've ever done, I think, and remarkably steady overall for handstitching! So it's coming along well, at least.

Everybody's work this round is especially beautiful, it's so exciting to see everything coming together!

 

Oh that hem is so neat!! I never get my stitches that even... This is going to be really cute when it's done!

 

It took me 3 days but I was able to make this summer dress for Momoko ! I think she is pretty like this. =)

Making patterns don't took me many times. Fortunately, it fitted well for the first attempt !

Spoiler

And here she is ! ^^

 

Yay, it's coming together well!

Awwww! She's dressed to match her hair! Sweet.

Teddy

 

Congratulations on a sewing project well done! Lovely material and design, and looks great on your doll.

 

Gorgeous, and the story is so sweet.

Teddy

 

oh my is that the most adorable story behind the sewing project you are doing. What an amazing design, I love it SEW much! Brilliant work!

 

Taika's outfit came out more high-end lounge wear than PJs, but it's still cute! Managed to do it all in a day even though I re-made the shorts after the first pair came out too loose in the waist. Here's the finished outfit-


Now I'm going to go tackle the star print flannel pajama set I've been meaning to make for Conri.

 

Love the outfit, material, and the doll. It turned out nicely!

 

@PoeticSoul oh ! do you have pictures of all your bunnies ?

All the project are so cool this month ! Everyone is so motivated ! ^^
And thank you all for my two girls. I will try to make a picture with the two together.

 

Thanks @mydaffer ! I had just enough of the blue jersey left for the top, so I'm glad it came out well.

 

@PoeticSoul Wow ! All these cute bunnies !

 

That's really nice you have a theme for dolls. Mine mostly all wear dresses I've made, nothing like this though. Love all the bunny figures and dolls, especially the one with the pastel spool arm, did you do that? Very unique!

 

What a great collection you have! They are amazing!

 

While waiting for the next thread, I made another dress and a winter coat. I'm so happy of how it came out and would love to share with you all

 

That is lovely, love the colors and design. Lovely photos too, especially the water fall one with the rocks.

 

Awww thank you so much!

 

A veritable burrow-full of bunnies! Yay!

Impressive productivity. It looks good too.

Teddy

 

I usually recognize sculpts by the makers but I never seen her before, very unique. Love what you've done with her.

 

I've had Sativa's under-dress done for almost a week now, and finally got the energy to take some pics of her tonight. I did a bit of insertion lace above the bottom ruffle (thank you @Maud for the inspo ) and elastic at the waist to give it a more flattering shape. The closure is a simple bit of velcro down the front, mostly because I wanted it to be relatively easy to remove when needed.


(I also made her hat at the tail end of last month- it's made of fleece, but I would like to make her another one from felt.)


And a cute glamor shot because I started having fun playing around with her posing.
I haven't even played Elden Ring, but she's giving me major Rani vibes.

ETA: @PoeticSoul I LOVE your Bunnyland! It looks so cute and magical!

 

Adorable and seems to fit her perfectly. Love the added lace, simplicity to the closure, and the neck line. Well done, she looks great.

 

Very pretty

Teddy

 

This turned out SO cute!! And wow I love that shade of green with all these pale colors... Sativa looks so lovely!

 

That looks amazing, it's beautiful and your doll looks great! Love what you do.

 

Thank you guys! I'm so happy to hear that. You guys keep me motivated

I LOVE the result! She really came out of fairyland. I love your work so much!

 

The robe is comfy looking and a piece of art. Nicely done.

 

Beautiful.

Teddy

 

@WintyGummyBear your outfits always look so awesome, I love your work!! Your girls are so stylish

@kaschan502 I love how it turned out, it's so light and airy! It makes her look so ethereal with her willowy limbs, how beautiful

@PoeticSoul another amazing robe for Poetta, her stories are unforgettable! I love the bunny appliques, such a lovely touch!!!

 

I think I'm finished with this little matching set for Doria. I'm humming and harring on whether to add more of the blue lace around the bust of the top and around the waistband of the bottom but I haven't decided yet.

Anyway. Matching set.





I really need a better photo setup, she looks super yellowed here and she really isn't. Also she's headless currently because I'm redoing her faceup so her head is elsewhere.
