When the little girls want.....

.....What the big girls have!

Fiona, my 25cm tall Little Fee, wanted a new dress "Just like Meggie's!".  Well Meggie is a Sasha, so quite a bit bigger, but I thought I'd give it a go!  I was going to create a pattern from scratch but thought I'd have a go with an exisiting Sasha pattern and reduce it to fit.  It took quite a bit of reducing but I actually cut straight away into the fabric because I have quite a lot of it and I'm really lazy when it comes to 'trial runs'.....I always think "if it doesn't fit X doll, I'm sure it'll fit someone else here...."  the benefit I suppose of having 'too many' dolls! 

I'm really pleased with the fit.  I think I'll narrow the shoulders ever so slightly on the next one, but apart from that, well she's delighted with it!!!
