A Sneak Peak at the Next Etsy Item
A doll-sized 1940's school jumper!
I think I like this better than any of my other doll projects so far! I'm going to have a hard time parting from it... ;-)
It was my first time making box/inverted pleats; aren't they neat?? I had a ball making them...
Anyway, I still have to make the blouse to go with this and then put it up for sale. I actually already made a blouse, but when I was done with everything except for the fastenings I decided it was way to fray-happy and I didn't like the way it looked. (I had used a very thin, fraying material.) So I am going to start all over again with muslin and probably trim it with piping instead of lace.
Just for fun, here is a tutorial for making box/inverted pleats.

Ashley, I want one for myself too. ;-) I guess I could combine some pattern pieces and draft others to make something similar... hm... *ideas cooking in my head* Only I don't know that "they" sell that fabric anymore and it really is delectable... But I suppose I could find something similar! :-)
