The Chanel Jacket - Beginning My Jacket Drape

 The draping of the jacket started in December.  I draped a low-hip length torso bodice with bust and fish eye darts.  I might change it to have a side panel and no fish eye darts.  The sleeve was draped as well, however, I don't have a photo of it at this stage. 

 

 I like having a collar and am considering doing it and the front trim, along with the pocket and cuff details on the bias like the jacket above.

 The detail on the bottom of the cuff in this image is striking and I might try to do something like this with my Georgette.

Another Sneak Peak at More Bonjour Teaspoon Doll Clothes

Getting ready for more doll fun!  Almost ready for the Real photo shoot.  Waiting for a wig from my favorite Etsy Seller,  Blythism.  Her wigs are a little out there, but I picked a blond one I think will look pretty natural.

This process of re-sizing my kid and adult patterns to doll size has been easy and totally exciting.  Putting it into the right format to sell online is quite daunting, however and I'm a little stuck at the moment.  Rest assured, I will get it figured out, but it's taking a while.  Just now, I'm faced with learning the Adobe program Indesign so I can make a multi page .pdf file.  I might be able to do this in microsoft word, but not sure if it will work for translating the large patterns to digital files. Uggh....
In any regards, I do love to dress them up and can't wait to actually start selling Doll Clothes and Patterns for Doll clothes. Yay!

 You know you want an Emma Tote!
