Playing with the embroidery machine....

I have been absolutely itching to have a go at making something dolly related using my new sewing/embroidery  machine and at the weekend sewed a few designs that I've now made into tee shirts.  The first one is a simple design of a camera using just one colour, I chose black thread and sewed it on to grey marl knit fabric.  Initially I wanted to reduce the size of the design but in the end I did it in it's original size and am actually quite pleased with how it came out.....I was concerned it'd be too big for a doll tee shirt but then again, real kids wear big, medium and small designs on their clothes and so dolls needn't be any different!

Here is Emily, my Goetz Happy Kidz, wearing her new tee shirt.  I used an American Girl pattern for the top and think next time I would prefer it to be less 'fitted' as Emily has a bit of a pot belly which is emphasised by this shape!

I made the rest of the outfit previously but Emily thought they worked well with her new  tee shirt.

Here she is posing by the sea which was quite stormy and choppy today, although the storm never did happen!
