I have been working on bride and groom Day of the Dead Dolls. With my fingers crossed, I will have them completed for November 2. ...just in time for Day of the Dead.
The "couple" are very detailed and so far they are some of my best work. I would love to show you a picture...only when they are complete.
Monday night the tux was nearly done....just a good pressing was needed. My iron was way too hot....and it melted....."OH @$#&".
All of the clothing for my DOTD dolls are made without patterns.
I had enough fabric, so I started a replacement jacket. Nothing went right...too big here..too small there....in the trash can.
The nearest JoAnne's is 18 miles away. I found the suiting material. and several other fabrics perfect for future Day of the Deads. Moonlight Madness at JoAnn is this Saturday and Sunday and I am using my 50% off to buy a mini quilters iron , just so I can get in all the tiny little prim spaces. I think I need to get busy as Christmas is 60 some days away! OH! OH ! OH!

Oh Carol, I'm so sorry, I know exactly what that is like!! Can't wait to see your newest pair, I just know how incredible they will be...even with problems!!! :)
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that Carol! It is the worst to have something ruined while working on a project. It will be awesome to see your dolls when they are completed.
