She is wearing a blue linen jacket and a dress made from another Heather Ross double gauze print.
My foxes wardrobe color palette has gotten a LOT brighter since I taught the fox class back in January. I am now using colors and combinations that I never would have considered before!
I think she looks a little bit scared in this one-
She is wearing a corduroy coat in colors that remind me of a pumpkin. I guess I’m jumping the seasons a bit!
I cut out a little frog from the fabric and made a badge for her jacket. The dress is made from double gauze with a Heather Ross print.
All her stuff, front-
And back-
I had a lot of fun with the details on this one. Don’t you love her jacket with the rabbit print and the corduroy collar and cuffs? I bought that rabbit fabric lots of years ago on a trip with my son to Portland, Oregon. Using the fabric reminds me of the trip!
I put a plaid panel on her backpack. Maybe I was inspired by Moonrise Kingdom which I watched recently (loved it!).
She has a silk bow at her ear. And she has a necklace with a heart, a leaf, and a feather.
Here is all her stuff-
It turns out that when the temperature is in the 90’s and the humidity is through the roof, I just can’t bring myself to dress my foxes in wool. This little girl fox is very summery indeed!
She has a Liberty dress and a linen jacket.
Her shawl is a rough raw silk.
She has her purse with a charm and a notebook in it.
Here she is with all her stuff.
And the back view.
And I really need to show you the tiny little buttons- love them!
And here she is, standing amongst the allium in my garden. Did you notice? The print on her dress is allium!
He looks young to me. More like a school boy fox.
All the stuff and here are some detail photos-
I was hoping it was spring but we got a surprising amount of snow on Friday. No one was expecting the 14″ we ended up with! Hopefully it’ll all be gone soon.
It is that particular shade of green that I associate with preppiness. So I gave him a bright plaid vest too. It seemed like they’d go together.
Some details- the stuff in his bag.
and a close-up of his vest. It has 3 pockets and buttons up with thread loops.
He isn’t going to blend into the background.
Yes I know he isn’t all THAT colorful, but more than usually for me. I tend to go for the blend-into-the-forest fashions but I was influenced by the color choices of the students in my fox class. All their foxes had much more colorful outfits.
She is another quiet, unassuming fox. Her mom dresses her to blend into the forest.
Can you see her mittens on a string?
Here he is! An unassuming fellow, happy to blend into the background.
And without his scarf and bag-
And yes, we got some snow. I think the official number is 26″ but there was a lot of drifting.
Maybe it is a bit cold for butterfly hunting? But, he is an optimist.
His vest shows his passion. And his sweater is cashmere.
I will try to get the boy foxes into my shop this weekend- probably on Sunday. Also, I am still playing with the photo size- let me know if you are having any problems.
