Doll Blog Rule #1: You gotta have projects. Now that I have a big doll, I'm trying to gather enough courage to try sewing again. I'm intimidated by most of the patterns in Dress Making for Super Dollfie Vol. 1, but the cute star dresses on page 17 look like something that I could handle. Tonight, I made a trip to JoAnn's to pick out supplies. I wanted my dress to be original, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't find a fabric/ribbon color combination that I liked. In the end, I picked out a purple fabric that just about matches one of the dresses in the book. :P The 1/2 yard of purple cotton fabric, 1/2 yard of organza, spool of purple ribbon, purple thread, and tracing paper cost around $12. Add in the hours of aggravation from using my crappy $99 Brother sewing machine that I purchased from Wal-Mart 6 years ago, and I'm probably better off just buying a dress from Y!J. No. Must not think like that. Must try. I will not fear organza.
