Millinery Designs

I have a fascination with hats. I can only wear certain kinds--my head shape is all wrong for many. However, through my dolls I can make and wear any kind I want. So far I have only created ladies' top hats in a Victorian or steampunk style. I'll start with my first which is on sale on the DOA forums. I called it the Ianthe.

I love this pose. Very Michael Jackson.

The second hat I made was much simpler. I took some hot pink tulle and painted it black, then went with a steampunk vibe with the gears near the back as embellishments.

The third and final hat I made was for a steampunk swap on the boards. It's my favorite in a lot of ways, but it was given to my partner in the swap. I did manage to get these pictures of it before I shipped it.

The Cloaks Are Finished!

The cloaks I mentioned in the previous post are completely finished and posted on the DoA forums. I loved the pics taken. They make me wish I had a Fairyland Littlefee at home to wear them. So cute! Here are Rosslyn's dolls Stella and Scythe modeling the various cloaks: Overall, I'm very pleased with how they came out! If you would like to purchase one, go here .

Halloween Pictures!

Cherry, Lan, and Briar decided they wanted to join in on the Halloween fun, so enjoy their costumes and little sets! Cherry went very Disney with her Frozen-inspired dress and a tiny pumpkin from our garden. Lan is a little witch and every witch needs a familiar. Briar wanted to enjoy some sumptuous Middle Eastern furniture and costume!

Knit MSD Dress

I developed a pattern for this MSD-size doll dress a bit ago, but I needed the yarn I'd originally used for another project, so I set to knitting a new dress for Lan to keep. I really love how fitted it is and how it hugs her curves. The pattern has the cables both front and back. I think I will be offering this pattern for sale in some fashion in the future.
