SUNDRESS IN MINT FLOCKED WALLPAPER DESIGN - MADE FOR MADAME ALEXANDER CISSY DOLL. The fabric has nice body, not too stiff or limp.! I've been sewing for Cissy and other dolls for several years now. Cissy is posing with a borrowed petticoat. (NO DOLL - clothes only). The skirt is 72" wide and has the required 2" hand stitched hem.My tiny "handmade" charm is tacked at the back seam as always. OOAK outfit made for Madame Alexander Cissy Doll (NO DOLL - clothes only) My sewing experiences started when I was in Jr. High School and carried me through the ages. I made clothes for my children, kept dancers in costumes when I taught Ballet and Tap, Jazz and tumbling for 40 years, and also created many, many Figure Skating costumes for male and female skaters and even some of the Precision Teams while I lived in Alaska. I also made many of the costumes for West High School of Anchorage when the dance group there put on a production of The Nutcracker all Jazzed Up. What a show THAT was...!!! Lori, you outdid yourself on that, girl...!!! I have to say it is much easier sewing for dolls, because they stay the same size and never need a new pattern size. hahaha I've been sewing for Cissy and other dolls for several years now. I use vintage fabrics and laces for most everything I create. I follow the Madame Alexander codes and requirements except for some bodices as I prefer a snug fit. Thank you for your interest in my creations. Today Cissy is modeling a sweet sundress I created from a lovely mint green semi-sheer dot Swiss cotton fabric that has a lovely wallpaper design of flocked flowers in straight lines and braids. The fabric has nice body, not too stiff or limp...!!! The waist length bodice has a midriff design, and I took great care in the pattern placement so the straight-line flowers rest on the shoulders while the midriff design runs the opposite direction using the braided look...!!! It is lined in cotton organdy and closes with 3 square snaps. The skirt is 72" wide and has the required 2" hand stitched hem. My tiny "handmade" charm is tacked at the back seam as always. Cissy is posing with a borrowed petticoat. I took many pictures for your viewing. Questions are welcomed. Thanks for looking...!!!
