Update on Cinderella Doll Pattern

Sorry I haven't been able to post any new updates for a while. Family emergency...
Anyway, as you can see I am working on the bodice. Once I am finished hand sewing the bodice to the doll, I will attach her head, then her hair... CAN'T WAIT! It might be a few days due to unforseen family matters.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a lovely weekend!

Cinderella Doll Pattern Update

I worked most of the day Sunday on Cinderellas costume. So far I am very happy and so is she... LOL!

I just love all the layers for her skirt. I used a Vintage lace, that is in the second picutre. I wanted it to show as an underlayer, peeking out on the bottom of the dress. There is a glitter, sparkle tulle underneath, that is meant to catch the eye with just a hint of a sparkle. Then I added a rounded layer, not sure what it is called... duh LOL. I will do all the additional embellishments when the whole dress is made. Thats my favorite part:)

The sleeves so far, are double layered. The under layer is the glitter tulle and the outer is the same lace as the dress. The sleeves are far from finished!

Ooops... she doesn't have a bodice yet, that is because I have so many ideas that I don't know what to do...

The head isn't attached yet since it is so much easier to attach the costume without it. I have lots of ideas on what to do with her hair. I think I am heading for long free natural hair with lots of jewels and flower... we'll see!

Its so fascinating to me, watching my dolls come to life. I always start with an idea, but some how they never turn out that way... LOL!

Thank you for stopping by!

Cinderella Doll Update

The face is not finished yet. I still have to add fake eyelashes and maybe crystal eyeliner. Once her head is attached to the body then I can needle sculpt to move the stuffing where it needs it. I wanted to use colors soft, since she will be Cinderella. This is not the best picture...

I finally made green eyes and I am happy with them... even Cinderella likes them.

I am hoping to get a good start on her gown this weekend.... can't wait!

I bought some dyed mohair, but Cinderella doesn't seem to like it... LOL!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a lovely weekend!

Cinderella Doll Update

I finished sculpting my Cinderella Doll face. It still needs some needle sculpting to move the stuffing where I want it. I am hoping to color the face in today.... can't wait to see what she is going to look like. I'm thinking green eyes, since her costume will be in salmon/peachy color and cream... thats the plan so far... LOL My dolls always have a way of changing what I have in mind!

I'll keep you posted!

Have a great day!

Hugss, Caroline
