And so I started a new project. It's not like I needed another one. I cut out the girl and her dress, lined her with a medium weight interfacing and backed her with flannel. I bought a strip of magnetic tape and put a couple of pieces inside the girl. I had to put the magnet on the outside of the dress to make them connect.
I want to make a background scene for her and her clothing. I was using these nice new dishtowels my daughter bought for me to figure out sizing.
Do I want one scene ----
Some young friends of mine drew me these pictures as ideas for backgrounds. They are looking forward to a prize.
I also bought these fabrics at the same shop. I don't know how I'll use them but I like the vintage look. Housewives used to wear dresses and heels when they worked in the kitchen with their cute little aprons on.

What adorable fabric! I like the idea of interchangeable backgrounds for the dolls!
ReplyDeleteYou have always like paper dolls. You should try to find some Betsy McCall paper doll fabric.
