two tutus

I am working on these dolls at the same time… they are going to have the same basic costume. I’ve never worked this way before. I can switch parts around to see what works best. I made the pattern and the jumpsuits yesterday. This morning I was trying on hair.
I found this doll bench for sale (just 10 bucks!) as we were walking to a restaurant for dinner. Perfect for display.

and here it is, in use!

Everything is very raw at this point. I am remaking the black tutu since it doesn’t fall right. Hair is pinned on. Everything needs finishing. But I have found my direction with these 2 pretty quickly. Tomorrow shoes, and vest/ pinafore/ sweater whatever…

They are Fantastic - love the expressions that you get on their faces, especially the one with the red/brown hair!! I can see how working on two simultaneously can be exciting too, as they would grow together - I hope they don’t create arguements when they’re telling what they want ;)…
