TBT, be damned. I was looking through some old designs on my hard drive and felt nostalgic. One of the items that caught my attention is this outfit I made for my Iplehouse JID girl Rachel.
Leotard, pants and overdress.... all fully lined! The work it took, I can't begin to tell you.
This outfit is in someone's private collection somewhere now, but I still love it, and it'll lend itself to Ellowyne and Patience beautifully. Probably even Blythe.
The olive green fabrics in the leotard and pants are some I hand-dyed, so they had to be lined with un-dyed light fabric to eliminate the risk of staining on the doll's body. This is why I tend to line everything I can.
Lined pants are quite fun and interesting to make, but when it comes to a lined leotard - it's no mean feat!

I remember wishing that it was Ello sized when you made it! Lovely outfit and nice to see it again!
ReplyDeleteI need to work out an Ell version - but it probably won't be quite as fully lined!
DeleteNice to see the reappearance of (not) throwback thursdays and hopefully you`re back on track with Patience now too :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I stopped trying to be a smartarse and went back to my tried and tested method, and now it's working properly. :)
