TheLadyKiyoko Posted October 30, 2011 I love to knit and crochet and I am decent at sewing as well. Thanks to a friend of mine on here already, MikoAkiko23, I have gotten really interested in wanting to make dollfie clothes. But I still need some more measurements or some clothes to get the measurements from. Like what the cirbleepfrence is of the waist, upper legs, lower legs, all the breast sizes, upper arms, lower arms, and neck. As well as many other ones. Would anyone be willing to help me with that? The style of clothes I want to start with are Feudal Era Japanese kimono's, miko outfits, hakama and haori outfits and so on like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jadepixel Posted November 8, 2011 I made a DD dress this weekend The dress still needs work, maybe another pass with better-matching thread and some fixes. The blouse was pretty easy though, and fits both M and L busts. For my first DD sewing project, it worked out well. My favorite bit is the little brown bow - it clips on with a piece of wire, so it can be removed or reused anywhere. jadepixel doll lab jadepixel eye shop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Halcyon Posted November 8, 2011 The dress still needs work, maybe another pass with better-matching thread and some fixes. The blouse was pretty easy though, and fits both M and L busts. For my first DD sewing project, it worked out well. My favorite bit is the little brown bow - it clips on with a piece of wire, so it can be removed or reused anywhere. White thread's fine. It matches the color of the blouse. I must say - you did very well for your first sewing project. Now I'm tempted to see what you can put together for your next project! Great job with this casual dress~!! DD 娘 - Dollfie Dream® Daughters {1} : DDS [ユ-ピィ] - Euphie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
