    3. @aernath oh he looks so good in it!! I was hoping it would fit ok since he's a little bigger than my boys. :)
       
    4. It fits great and looks good! Thanks!
      I'm running behind on finishing yours up, but soon!
       
    5. Over a week ago my first gift arrived from @ninive
      It is simply stunning because it's so delicate and looks like so much work! Thanks a lot!

      I hope it's okay to make suggestions? You could add ribbon as a belt by making these loops like in jeans for belts. This way you could include another colour and a bow (anybody else who loves bows? XD)
      You wrote that you initially intended to do these for your fantasy pawed Soomie. Do you know wrap pants? They are awesome for dolls which have fantasy parts.
       
    6. Wow, that IS a bit of work! Nice job! It looks adorable and looks like it fits like a glove!
      @Lythtis I suspect with a tiny ribbon and a tiny crochet hook, you could weave a ribbon belt in easily. ^_^ And change it up to coordinate with anything else like shoes or hair bow.
      Love that wig and eye combo with that grey resin! They really pop and look great!
       
    7. I have received my stuff from Aernath!

      First up, we have a really nice button up for Ryan--it fits him really well, and the pattern is definitely something he would wear! (And he does well displaying the card as art. XD )

      She also sent a pretty little pink blouse for Hazle. It goes well with the white skirt she already had.

      Thank you so much, @aernath !
       
    8. Yay! So glad everything seems to fit! And very glad Ryan likes his shirt! I really worried about that - I have NO fashion sense. :sweat
       
    9. My mom also thought it should have had a belt, or a line in a contrasting color. I haven't thought about loops because they'll need to be sewn in (or worked in double stitches but I didn't think they'll look good) and I'm not that good at sewing, but I was thinking of changing the shorts pattern to add a button on the front. Still working on that though.
      What are wrap pants?
       
    10. Got in our package of goodies from @Dark_Sahara10 !
      That was pretty quick from Canada!

      My little Azul is thrilled to finally get shirts with the perfect blue to match his eyes and wig!
      I think this is going to be his favorite shirt for a while. ;)

      The neck is a little wide on this one, but I love the coordinated thread! Sweet touch!

      Also got a page of fun Canada stickers!
      I have a friend that always sends me things with stickers stuck all over it. Now I can return the favor! :mwahaha

      And here are the postcards from both @CloakedSchemer and Dark_Sahara10 on our refrigerator door.
      I forgot to take a photo of the one from Cloaked, earlier. :sweat

      Thanks for the fun, Dark! My minis often get neglected, so it's great to pull one out and spoil him a bit. ^_^

    11. I received my gifts from Wynn and hiruna a while back and finally took some photos.

      Both gifts were so different from each other but yet so lovely! Wynn and hiruna are so talented and creative <3 Thank you so much!
       
    12. Thank you very much, @aernath and @CloakedSchemer!

      From @CloakedSchemer, I got a t-shirt and a lil beanie for Kit. His head didn't quite fit the hat, but I have some smaller dolls who will be fast to snap that up. I also got a postcard re: Kentucky's legendary rock fences! I am enjoying the scenery...

      From @aernath, I got a couple of dress shirts and a sweet Godzilla T-shirt. Trying to get the shirts on the boy made me remember that I need to get him some jointed hands because his??? thumb joint does not play nice with hand holes. The shirts with the stretchy fabric made their way on fine, but one of my new boys Jayk (who had been sitting around topless for a while) quickly snapped up the shirts that wouldn't fit Kit's weird bony hands. These dress shirts are also awesome for him to sit around showing off his rippling abs, apparently. Or so he says. Got an aesthetically pleasing card with the Flint Hills... the grass looks so green...

    13. @ Dark_Sahara10 Thanks for sharing! Actually the top one is from me. haha I'm glad the shirt fits, and sorry the hat doesn't but I'm glad it works for somebody in the house.

      I also got my stuff from you, and in the time since the start of the swap, Ryan unexpectedly ended up leaving my home to go live with someone else (oops), but Michael was happy to steal his gift of a really awesome Canada tshirt and jeans!

      [​IMG]

      There was also a sheet of Canadian stickers and cool ghosty themed post card (but Photobucket is being a pain tonight...) All around, very cool, thank you!
       
    14. Whoops! Sorry, @CloakedSchemer; fixed it! I am glad that things were able to go to Michael. Glad you enjoyed! :)
       
    15. Yay! I'm glad at least one shirt fit! Sorry the sleeves weren't wide enough for those thumbs to squeak through!
