    2. I just adore her <3

      Unfortunately, the things I made for her didn't fit well, but I ordered her default outfit, so at least she has a cute outfit to wear. :)

    3. Yay!!!!! She's adorable!!!!! I love her wig, I like the brunette dollies so much!

      Francie has by far, the biggest wardrobe of all my dolls. They wear standard yosd clothes. I'm sure if you adjust your patterns a little bit you will be making her a huge wardrobe in no time.

      More photos!!!!

    4. Thanks mollym :)

      I tried to go off of her measurements, but the shirt ended up being just slightly too small, and the bloomers a bit long/big. I'm sure I can do better next time :)

    12. Charlie's Sky Scouts uniform is complete!

      The bottom of her uniform is actually a skort.

      This is the boy version of the Sky Scout uniform.

      It took me three days of sewing to finish both uniforms. There was a lot of pin pricks and cursing and sweating and even a few tears. Here's how it went down:

      For the bottoms, I started out with brown material from my stash. The girl's bottom was originally to be a pleated skirt but the fabric melted when I tried to iron in the pleats. Back to the drawing board. I decided a skort would be easy enough to engineer by just adding a panel to my simple shorts pattern. It also made more sense for activity; skirts and camping don't really go together but I still wanted it to be feminine. My first skort ended up WAY too long and the second ended up getting the leg cut off when I was pinking the crotch. Sheesh. I'd ran out of brown fabric at that point and ended up taking a trip to Joann's for khaki. I am much more pleased with the new cotton fabric. After that, everything went easy peasy and the bottoms were done.

      Next: the polo shirts. I harvested material from one of my old t-shirts and made use of the khaki from the bottoms. I took the same pattern that I normally employ for t-shirts. I cut a slit in the front and added the button placard and collar (I figured out how from a tutorial). I used the same thread that matched the khaki fabric to sew the hems. The only difference between the shirts is that one of the polo shirts buttons on the right and one on the left because apparently men's and women's shirts button differently. I didn't want to make tiny holes so I just sewed the buttons on as if they were buttoned. Except for Charlie's top button. She's just not the type to button her shirt all of the way. ;) The shirts are velcro up the back because I'm not a masochist.

      I originally made neckerchiefs and sashes out of leftover aqua material from my scrap drawer but the sashes weren't long enough. The neckerchiefs didn't work for me so I tossed them but I didn't have enough of the aqua material to make new sashes. So I dug in my stash and made the sashes out of blue material. It went nicely with the brown. However, when I had to buy new material, I was able to get my preferred aqua to remake the sashes. It looks much better. The patches are from an Our Generation scouts pack which is what inspired me. I cut them out of the provided sash (because it was too big) and sewed them on the new sash with invisible thread.

      I felt the uniform still needed more aqua after I tossed the neckerchiefs, so I grabbed some aqua felt while at Joann's to make berets. I wanted the berets to look as though they were wool. The Googles provided a pattern for an MSD sized beret with a tutorial. I printed the pattern out at 100% and made one out of some scrap yellow felt. It ended up too big so I reduced the pattern to 75% and tried again. It was perfect! I stitched up two more out of my aqua felt. I wanted to add a button or something but it made it look cluttered. The berets were, by far, the easiest part.

      I still have to make socks (white with aqua trim) just so everything is matching because I'm just like that. But otherwise the uniforms are complete!

      All in all, I think I did a pretty good job. I'm rather proud of myself. Now, if my DL Chi would just get here so they can go camping. :lol:

    14. [MENTION=53169]mollym[/MENTION] - Thank you. I worked very hard on it. As for my Chi (who I've named Trevor), he's in transit somewhere. Could be a month, could be next week. :aangel: I'm trying to be zen about it.

      Your pairs of twins are adorable, I love how they match their respective twin, but look different from each other too :)

    16. So a couple of days ago I noticed that Charlie's face-up had a scratch in the cheek blush. Being the OCD person I am, I scratched at it. Of course, the faceup started flaking off. I already had a new wig in the mail (that came in today) so I figured I'd go ahead and give my little sweetie a new face to match. Here's how it came out. Not bad, if I do say so myself. Especially considering that this is my first resin face-up (I gave my Hujoo babies wee faceups a couple of weeks ago).

      Charlie is now a ginger! She's cuter than ever! :aheartbea:aheartbea:aheartbea

    17. We are actually going on a two week camping trip next month. I'll be taking my babies and their camping gear. After all, they need to earn those badges somehow. ;)

    19. Thank you. I think they turned it quite well, too.

      Your boys are adorable! Fire and ice!

      I'm looking forward to getting my little guy. He'll be my first boy. He's just taking soooo loooong! I'm going crazy waiting for him! *_*

    20. [MENTION=70134]LadyMissJenni[/MENTION] - Awe! Charlie is so cute. She looked cute before. I must say, she is even cuter now! Did you paint on her upper lashes? I can't tell from the photo. I really like her wig. Good job!

      [MENTION=69319]ChildofHumanity[/MENTION] - I like the contrasting wigs!!! I would have never thought to look at FB for outfits. That's really neat-o!!! Which one is the older twin?
