I finally finished that Mini Minion I started in January, and I also made my dolls a Crystal necklace inspired by the necklaces worn by the Atlantians in Disney's Atlantis.

Two updates and a brand new page. I made a (sort-of) doll stand and found (and finished) a little rag doll I started years ago. Also, let me introduce a brand new page; Caili's closet. All sewing projects (and jewelry, when I start beading again) will be listed on this page starting January (when I got Caili) as well as on the Sewing and Craft Projects page. Caili's closet will be a sort of overview.
Sometime last month (I think) I made a oven mitt/glove for my AGs, and this month I fixed my Josefina's badly frizzed hair with a Hot Water Dunk.
Finally upgraded the Sewing and Crafts section again. I categorized the projects by month and year, to make it easier to navigate. I added projects (pictured above) to 2014, and a couple new entries on the Ongoing Project page. Hope you enjoy looking through my pictures!
The last couple days I did a few crafty things, and I just got the pages up for them. The first thing I did was fix a coat that was made for the My Twinn dolls so my AGs can have it. The second thing I did was remake a vest that I found mixed in with our fabric. The third thing was a necklace that I made (actually, there were two, but they're identical).
In one of these posts I put a hidden link to another secret page (I'll give you a hint, the content within it isn't mine) This purse was originally Molly's Muff. I sewed one end shut, and added round toggle clasp pieces the the other end. Then I clipped on one of my necklaces as a strap.
To see more pictures of the purse, and/or read about how I made it, scroll up to the menu bar, hover over the Sewing & Craft Projects button, and click on 9-23-13 ~Customizable Purse. Or you can click on either of the two links in this post. It's not quite done yet, I'm hoping to finish it tomorrow. That is what I'm hoping it will look like when I'm done with it. *UPDATE* An update, albeit a very late update... I have forgotten to work on my website lately. I did finish the tank top a couple days after starting work on it. I think it turned out very cute. Here's a picture: No, I never made the matching headband, but I did make the fingerless gloves. They are a bit snug getting on, but I like the look. *Goes off to look for a more recent picture* Hmm. . . I don't seem to have taken a picture of this set after I found a pair of jeans to go with it. No, I never made a pair to match . . . yet. . I'll have to get a picture at some point today, probably after updating my blog the rest of the way.
To see more pictures of the shirt, and/or read about how I made it, scroll up to the menu bar, hover over the Sewing & Craft Projects button, and click on 8-1-13 ~Pretty Tank Top. Or you can click on either of the two links in this post. Yesterday evening I was getting ready to sew some more doll clothes, when I found a book I hadn't seen in a long time while looking for lace and velcro. I flipped through it, and found two patterns I really wanted to try. So a while later, after looking around for batting and felt, I made up a Stuffed Cat and Mouse. I'm thinking they're a bit big for my American Girls, but one never knows. . . Perhaps I'll get a picture of them with Serra when I take a picture of her in the sandals I repaired. Tonight maybe. Anyway, I didn't post them last night because I tried to do a doll shirt too, but it got to be too late to work on it thanks to supper and TV. I'm hoping to finish that tonight too.
To see pictures of the stuffies, and/or read about how I made them, scroll up to the menu bar, hover over the Sewing & Craft Projects button, and click on 7-30-13 ~Stuffed Cat and Mouse. Or you can click on either of the two links in this post. So I'm trying to get back into crafting and sewing. I used to do a bit of beading, drawing, and thinking about sewing, but I've had a hard time getting back to it since we moved... Anyway, I'm going to try to do at least one crafty thing a day. Yesterday's item was actually two items. Two different halter tops, and at least one can double as a skirt. :D Today's item is I fixed a pair of American Girl sandals. As I craft/sew things I want to create a sort of online journal cataloging my progress with one page in the Sewing & Craft Projects directory dedicated to whatever it is I do, plus a blog entry on my blog here.
As of right now, my sewing skills are pretty much non-existent, so my creations probably won't be the best (plus I'm using old thread that my old sewing machine likes to spit up :( ), but I'm going to try anyway. I also want to eventually have a list of all of the dolls I've collected in the Meet the Girls directory. So far I have my LeeAnn, Ginger Brook Hollow, Magic Attic, and American Girl dolls posted. I still need to finish putting up pictures of my Carpatina Ana Ming, Battat, Gotz Kimberly, My Twinns, and then I need to finish putting up the descriptions for all of them. I also want to have a few more pictures and maybe some stories of some sort for my AGs and MACs (they are my favorites, and the ones I do the most with). Oops, I guess I got a little long winded. . . hehe. . . Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy reading and following along, should you choose too. Whether you do or not, I hope you enjoy looking around! Thanks for visiting! :D |
