Another new outfit for Sian!

This girl is becoming incredibly spoilt!  But what's a dolly mum to do when these kids look at you so endearingly and ask for new things? ;)  How do we stop ourselves from dropping everything, leaving the housework and letting the lunch burn, and getting the fabric of their choice out of the drawer?  We don't, we just get on and sew!!!

And here is what I came up with.  The trousers are wide, almost 'Oxford Bags', now there's a blast from the past, eh?  They are made from this lovely colourful and soft corderoy that I bought from Scandanavia a year or so ago.  The tee shirt was actually one I bought recently from My Doll Best Friend in the UK, but as you'll see I've made some changes to it.  It came blank with Velcro fastening down the back.  I removed the Velcro and added metal snaps as I really don't like Velcro.  I then cut out different parts of the trousers fabric and appliqued it to the teeshirt, I then added various tiny buttons and hot glue metallic dots.  I'm really pleased with how it turned out!  I think Sian will wear it for the Chat n Snap!





"Am I cute or what!"
