Classic School Girl Dress
Submitted by Little Raven on Tue, 2017-03-14 00:25
The Classic School Girl pattern is out and up on Etsy! It took a couple extra days of work than I thought, and I had to make a last minute name change, as Vintage School Girl was too close to a few other 18 Inch pattern titles. But I'm good; classic works and it was one of my alternate working names. [node:read-more:link]

After a year+ (and several other patterns) I'll finally be putting up the Vintage School Girl pattern on my Etsy shop. It's the first pattern I ever created, but one I never published. [node:read-more:link]
Classic School Girl
Submitted by Little Raven on Mon, 2017-03-06 08:24
So I've been diligently working on getting my Vintage School Girl pattern up on Etsy this week. I love this little dress, inspired by a school outfit I found in an old photo from the 1920s. But it's interesting that it also resembles classic one-piece school girl dresses from the 50s, 60s, and 70s and even 80s. [node:read-more:link]

And she's done. No way, right?
Drafting the pattern listing on Etsy right now. :)
Fant'sy Pirate

Here's the pirate version of the Fant'sy Frock dress--I'm pretty happy with it!
This dress is pretty awesome because it can easily change themes--with a few fabric and minor detail switches--from a witch, to a pirate, to a princess, to Steampunk look, etc. I plan on making a version of all of these to showcase the versatility of this design.

LRC Fantsy Frock Progress

I have it where I want it, mostly. Or all really. I might adjust the sweetheart neckline, maybe, but overall I like where it has gone. I'm working on the pattern instruction booklet now, wondering if I'll be able to add the steampunk vest to the pack, but trying to get the pattern on my Etsy asap.

Fant'sy Frock testing: now that I got it together in the actual fabric, I'm thinking it needs adjustments. Go figure, I can't always see it until I reach this stage.
So I'm not 100% sure about the sheer hi-low train thingy. Maybe in the main fabric it will work better. But it's got something. . .
Embroidery floss as a temporary laceup, didn't have the right cording.

LRC Fant'sy Frock in the Works

I got to painting my custom dolls when I realized I didn't have all the colors I needed. Apparently I thought I could paint the brows and lashes with flesh colors too! So after playing around with some blush and lip color, I set the heads aside and I ordered some more paints in the right colors.
They won't be here for a week maybe, so in the meantime, I started working on a new pattern, a fantasy-type frock. It will be perfect for a witch dress, and just in time for Halloween!

Little Raven Creations Basics: Boxer Shorts. Soon to be here. I'm going through the final test runs today. There are actually two styles offered in this pattern; three if you count the variation on one.
Good doll boxer shorts are hard to make. How hard? Well, I wanted something that could actually be worn under clothing without bunching and lumping, so I had to strike a good balance balance between authentic and workable [node:read-more:link]
