Sewing Thread!

Hello! Anyone working on projects for the holidays? I am working on some doll outfits as gifts, and attempting to copy April Cornell's Avonlea dress (twice) , with a few adjustments. A tad complicated without a pattern, but the design is pretty loose and forgiving. Plus, someone gifted me a lot of that exact fabric, and I'd had my eye on this dress for a while. The plan is to make the sleeves full long sleeves and shorten the skirt a tad, for one, and remove the neckline ruffle and replace with a boat neck for the second.

Spoiler: Avonlea dress

That’s a nice dress!

Yes, I’ll be (hopefully) making my sister a dress for Christmas. I’m waiting for the pattern to arrive in the mail.

Then I have to make myself something nice to wear.

I also want to make my mom a house robe and my sister another dress for presents. Just waiting to go to Joanne Fabrics on Tuesday!
