The Journey: Entry #12

Got a chance to go out with my friend the other day, don't get a chance to do that very often so it was a good day. She spotted the perfect material for Helios's toga, I was originally going with white material but after she found this cream color with golden speckles I was hooked. It will look amazing once I actually make it. Here's hoping for a burst of much needed creative go! :)

The Journey: Entry #11

 Just one and a half more weeks to end this month, we are getting close to the one month mark and with that I'm picking up my production of welcome home clothing. :)

Here is a wip pic of the sleepy pants's material before I cut it.
I am actually pretty bad at math but I can pin a pattern like a boss. They may still be hip huggers, I realized after I finished them both that I forgot to modify the measurement of the crotch. Opps.

They came out very nice despite my mistake, I can still get crafty and add material to fix them if I find I need to but hopefully I made them large enough to ignore the opps.
I keep saying Im gonna make a toga... damn I really just need to do it already...

The Journey: Entry #10

 Had a great day with my friend, had a good lunch, then got some coffee and discovered that the jeans and sweater I made are just about the right size for her doll Rhiannon/Selene.

I'm still two months off of getting my first doll and hes bigger than the girl so, I gave mah friend the clothes I made for her doll. Now that I know how to size everything (rounded to 30cm if it says 25) my later creations should fit nicely. :)

 Accessories Box Opening! :D

Squee! The other wig has arrived!!!!!

 Box open, ooo packing peanuts! Haven't seen those in a while. :)

The Journey: Entry #8

Im extremely proud of the doll sweater I just got finished making. Its made from a pair of fancy men's socks (the dollar tree's finest) and a 46 year old zipper! I know its at least that old because it still had the original packaging! I am seriously loving Great Grandmas box of sewing treasures!

 It took a few hours to make, not very hard just going pic for pic from a tutorial was a bit difficult, not to mention I sewed one of the sleeves onto the wrong side of the jacket LOL! The lil' hanger was a nice touch. :) 

The Journey: Entry #7

WoooooooooooooooT! Helios Payment #2 processing! And my impulse wig is processing payment as well! Ima give a special shout out to mah best friend who gave me an awesome outfit after discovering that the smexy clothes she bought for her new boy, made him look like he was waiting for a flood or forgot to buy new clothes after age 12. I will be helping her make replacement clothes for her dolls. I r e-cited!

The Journey: Entry #6

Today marks the 2 month mark until Helios comes home!!! Oooooo I am so excited, I don't think I've ever looked forward to seeing a payment taken from my bank account! :D

*edit*
Bad Bad Moo! I totally just ordered a wig for my next doll, primarily because THEY DISCONTINUED IT! I found it yesterday and fell in love with it and over night BAM GONE! Oh hells no... Decala will have her wig! -_-

The Journey: Entry #5

 ACCESSORIES BOX OPENING!!!
Ok so, as you can guess I am now home and I FINELY get to open up the wig and eyes!!!!

Lets crack this puppy open!!!

 Squeee!!! The red shoes are a "gift" from the company, they like to give little random things to their customers. When I get my second girl doll she will get the shoes! :D

 All out of the box, Wig 16mm glass eyes and gift kitty shoes. :)

 Upon closer inspection of the eyes I discovered they are in fact two tone, I'm a bit sad about that so ill be getting new eyes eventually. But they will look nice for the time being. :)

Ah his glorious golden wig! Mom thinks it looks like a girls wig but I think it looks like messy guy hair. :)

And finely the super omg cute red kitty shoes!
They will be for my girl, a bobobie rachael whos name will be Decala.
