Me and My Project




Me and My Project .... nice title no! if you'll replace "Me and" and add "Andy" [ which is my cool short version of my name] it will become AndyMy Project. By the way... ANDYMY is my nickname not my name. anyway let us return to the subject of the second post ..

My Project consist in making doll fashion! yet i'm a beginner don't know lots of stuffs on how to hand sew correctly, how to make patterns, etc. etc... Why hand sewing you will ask; well i don't have a sewing machine, but i'll do whatever i can to buy myself one. Through this project i'll try to evolve and become better in making doll clothes -> maybe human clothes.

I already did some outfits, from a silly material: cotton [silly for dolls] but it was easy to manage here are some examples:


Yet i love the outfits and the pictures. They where done on the balcony where i used to lived, with a Nikon 40D [of a friend] on a sunny cold winter. But that will be the past! I need to look in the future and work my head and arms and do something great!

As you can see in the first picture that this post started with i have a shiny dummy ..hehe .. that was done with duck-tape a soft bag, and stuffed with cotton wool. That will be my voodoo doll [evil grin] for the moment is uncompleted i need to add the high of the doll but i'll do that tomorrow.

Another thing that you probably have noticed is the head and the headless body. If you have read my first post you would find out that i'm re-rooting my first doll that was at first a brunette. I'll finish her someday....

The conclusion: After i'll receive Tonner's Antoinette, and after i'll make a dummy after her body, i'll start making fashion! This weekend i'll go out to search for shops that sell zippers, magnetic clips, etc. and ask for prices. If I'll evolve as much as I wish i might start a little home shop.. but i must warn you from now... i'm working in a smoking environment! My Grandma' is a smoker and she can't quit... but yet we shall see in time .. wish me luck and i'll update soon.
