A Day of Sewing
Saturday, March 24th, 2007
Miss Charlotte should be quite pleased as the greater part of today was devoted to fussing over her and creating pretty doll clothes
Skwerlie came to visit and brought her overlocker and a huge box of fabrics which we had good fun rifling through and laughing over some of the outdated styles.
Much of the morning was spent procrastinating and looking at pretty pictures, as well as having yummy rolls and foccacias at a local cafe
but eventually we got around to our sewing projects! The first thing I created was a pair of white rose lace stockings, sewn out of some old hose. The design was just small enough to look sweet on her though, and they shall match a few of her outfits. Skwerlie designed a pretty white skirt with pink polka dot frills and tiny bows and got to work on that, although she didn’t quite finish it, it still looks adorable!
My second project was a skirt and matching bow using some pretty printed fabric I’ve had for a while. You can see the finished result in the picture!
In all, it was a lovely day. Although sewing can be a frustrating activity, it is nice to have company while doing it, and I’m so pleased to have a finished outfit to show for it! Miss Charlotte had a great time too ^_~
