Personal Project: Dress Me

 

Sometimes when I'm inspired I get a little obsessed. Like what happened here.

This project was the same way. I had to run right out to get a variety of colored felt while I was warming up my glue gun. The first thing I needed were dolls for dressing. In this case I was inspired to use animals. Then I, ahem, designed paper patterns for the clothes.

[Yes. I did that.]

Then I went crazy with the felt my friends. Stone. Cold. Crazy.

'Girl you be rockin' that zebra print!'

'Pull the Rolls around Jeeves, I'm having drinks with the Hiltons.'

'Rah, rah, rah, for Ski-U-Mah!'

There are skirts, dresses, and winter hats. Shorts. Ties. School uniforms. Career wear. Royal robes and crowns. These well dressed animals have a beret for pity's sake. There were glasses but the thinly cut felt just didn't hold up to W's styling technique.

[Meaning rough. That was a hard moment for me. Sniff.]
 
This was one of those projects that I got way more out of than W. I mean, she likes to play with it, but she doesn't stay up three hours past her bedtime creating just one more look!

[Yes. I did that too.]

I even toyed with the idea of a Spring Collection.

Really. Too much?
