SUNDRESS OF SHEER NYLON WINDOWPANE FLORAL - MADE FOR MADAME ALEXANDER CISSY DOLL. My eye sees the pinks as hot pink and fuchsia with the sash matching the hot pink in the flowers.! I've been sewing for Cissy and other dolls for several years now. Cissy is posing with a borrowed petticoat. 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 Vintage piece of lovely sheer nylon with Windowpane and floral outline prints in the background, while bright pinks, purple and white flowers shower the foreground with color. I'm not sure the camera captured the color. My eye sees the pinks as hot pink and fuchsia with the sash matching the hot pink in the flowers...!!! The bodice is a drop waist, scoop neckline that closes with 3 square snaps and is lined in light cotton. A narrow satin ribbon makes a lovely, pinched sash that ties in a pretty bow in back...!!! Val lace decorates the armholes. My supply of Val lace is getting low, and the good stuff is getting harder to find, especially at a reasonable cost. The skirt is 72" wide and has the required 2" 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...!!! This auction will be nicely wrapped and shipped (next day) in a Priority box. My home is smoke and pet free. Thank you again for your interest. Please check out my feedback. Have a lovely day, Donna :)
