My sister finished it today and we both think it's got such a nice fairy vibe - what do you girls and guys think? It's puffy enough on its own, even sans petticoat, which is great; and since there's some tulle left over, I'm thinking I'll try to make a simple casual tulle skirt once I have more energy. Gosh, it's like a piece of fairytale, or like for the Sugar Plum Fairy, I just...
My lovely sister just finished one part of the beading lace for the bodice. There were meant to be silk ribbon embroidered roses + probably butterflies, either of needle lace, beading, silk embroidery, or all of these - we'll see what we add and what we don't. The skirt part, methinks, needs more layers of frills... it's a bit bare as it is. We have them prepared, but we aren't sure yet. What do you...
Yay, new project finished!!! Sis and mum were hard at work and look at what they've made - so cute! I hope it will make some girl happy and she'll love wearing these a lot... It's for sale here over at Lacemarket: http://egl.lacemarket.us/auctions/sweet-doll-printed-set-of-matching-skirt-top-and-bloomers-free-purse-as-a-bonus So, how do you like it?:-) We nearly squealed with excitement when we saw the fabric - and the cute fabric shop we ran into by a total chanceXD I've got a...
Hi all:-) As I was waiting for fabric to arrive for a bonnet commission, I started randomly playing around with the prepared base, throwing this and that together - and this bonnet we're working on with mum is the result. I snapped only few progress pics because it was somehow always dark when I remembered to take them, but I hope they'll give you at least some idea of the process. I had this design...
After all the commissions and things made for sale, darling sis felt like working on some project for us; I went through the catalogue of unfinished things in my head and when I brought her a sketch of what we might do with the winter jacket and the fabrics I've piled up for it, she got excited and set to work with zeal. It's great to have a sister who loves to spoil you rotten...
Hello! *waves a bandaged hand* I managed to cut myself rather spectacularly as I was carving one of the columns for this door, so I guess it will be a bit silent here while it heals... serves me right for carving as I talk and watch TV, holding it in my hand instead of pressing it against some firm surface! This door is meant for a balcony archway, to close it so that light couldn't...
These are some of the first Lolita projects my sis had made - most of them as commissions, one for me (though I managed to snatch one up again when it appeared for sale on a sales comm, haha). Pink and white chiffon; embroidered magnolia flower on the waistband. One of my first Lolita skirts. Still gorgeous after nearly a decade of wearingXD Yards and yards of pink chiffon ruffles... like cotton candy!:-) Mint sparkly...
Project dump time again!:-) A collection of bloomers my sis has made - two pairs of them for sale, one pair for me. So first is a pair of pink chiffon cuteness that's still up for adoption (here at Lacemarket, for 21 USD + shipping of some 7 USD within Europe and 8.4 USD to the US). Soft, fluffy, adorable, French-seamed throughout (that chiffon frays like nobody's business!) - I hope it gets a good...
