Wow... What a wonderful set of little ones, too cute. I must get one of those rabbits, he does pull at my heart strings.
I have just placed my order for Anne - I have been waiting for her for a long time! I'm hoping she will get me sewing some of the stash of fabrics and ribbons and lace piling up around the house, although given how tiny she is it may take some time to make much of an impact...
I've been waiting for the 1:7 release! I always get caught out by their short ordering times. I need to try and in visage ther size. It seems like the Alice dress is already sold out though. Which face up did you go for @fjm123?
Basic head, girl body, normal skin and face up C - it looked as if it would be the easiest to enhance a little if necessary. I have already tried out the basic patterns on their website to be sure they are manageable - such a good idea having them there. Does anyone know which shoes fit best? Or, even better, where I can find a pattern to make some in advance?
Thanks for getting me moving! I have the Alice dress, but kicked myself for not ordering the hatter outfit the last time! But I just ordered one now! I think there are only 3 left!
I've just ordered Anne. She'll be my first 1.7. I do have a Timp but I think she'll be leaving soon as she's just too small - although oddly enough, I do have Realpukis and their size is fine! I didn't bother with the outfit as cute as it is, but I did get Alice's shoes as I hate shoe shopping for dolls! @fjm123 where did you find the patterns? I could only see the sold out patterns for the bigger dolls. Does anyone know what size clothing I need to look for? Is it a case of lati yellow fit but in longer lengths?
Here is the 1.7 pattern: iMda Doll 1.7 - A sewing room I found I had to play around a bit after downloading it to get it to print out at the right size. I plan on making a few basics in advance, and then really getting sewing when she arrives.
That is a piece of essential information, Nancy, thanks! Can anyone confirm? I would have been very upset if I had spent hours sewing and nothing fitted!
What eye size do people prefer for the 1.7 dolls, to give a reasonably natural look? Any pics comparing 8mm/10mm?
Hi everyone This is my first time posting here, I'd like to share a picture of my newest girl. (I believe she uses a Neo Angel Region 1.7 body even though she was sold on The Gem)
Congrats on ordering your Anne. I also ordered the basic Anne in cream white with faceup A. I recently purchased a Lucy in normal skin here on marketplace and absolutely adore her. I gave her 10mm ED eyes and they look nice. Middie Blythe clothing is pretty spot on for her. I made her a dress out of the Hanon Doll Sewing book and it fits awesome. The bloomers are modified from the Sarrouel pants from the same book. The nice thing about the book is that it also has patterns for Unoa Lusis (which I also have) so it's a win win for me. The layered skirt is from a middie pattern in The Heartwarming Series Book for Blythe. As far as shoes, I found that the ballerina flats, and maryjanes of Our Generation Mini and Lori fit nicely with socks. Both dolls are available at Target for 9.99. The boots are too wide in the calf, but may look ok with leggings tucked in or chunky socks. The tights from the dolls also fit pretty good on imda 1.7.

Thanks Queenbee - I am in the UK so those dolls probably aren't available, but I shall look out for the book. Do Soom usually confirm orders? I had a hiccup setting up my account, and although the payment has gone through and I have a PayPal receipt I cannot find an order number or any other info about my order. I have now set up my account again, but still cannot find a contact email address. I would be so disappointed if I missed out after waiting so long!
I received an email from Soom verifying my order the day I placed it and then several days later I received another email stating the details of my order had been modified- but everything was exactly the same as I when I placed my order. My orders are listed under my orders tab. I also searched for an email in order to contact customer service and I found nothing. There is only a mailing address, phone number and fax number. On my paypal history though, there is a button to contact Soom: [email protected] and on the PayPal receipt it also has Soom's order number for the item I ordered. Try contacting them with your order number via thru Paypal. I hope it gets cleared up* fingers crossed* , that would be terrible if you miss out on her. Best of Luck
