Today, let's try some of the non-clothes stuff that I've made.
One day, a friend on my sewing list gave us a link to a website that had free patterns for different types of dragons. I had to try it out, and this is what came out. Isn't he adorable? They're a pain to make because of the small size, but oh, so worth it in the end.
Here are a bunch of teddy bears that I made out of leftover fake fur that I had tons of, after making stuff for my nieces. I didn't want to throw it away, and I didn't want to give it away, so I got a very nice Carol's Zoo pattern and made as many of the 9" teddy bears as I could. I think in the end I made about 40 of them. Some I gave away to friends, but a lot of them went to my sister, who gave them away in the emergency room where she worked. The kids loved them, she said. Here are a couple of them.
Let me introduce two of my models, Charlotte and Isabelle. Isabelle is the blond. My sister gave me these 18" dolls so I would have models for making clothes for the dolls that my nieces have. Some of their clothes are models of the dresses that I made for The Girls, but these are just the clothes I made for a present. For what it's worth, the two top dresses took as much time to make as a full-size adult dress! Wow.
