Major PIP AW Enclosed, Open at Your Own risk:

Korra picked this Shirley Temple dress as inspiration for the grain sack fabric for her Kit doll:

The result:

The sides of the collar are even ruffly!  (one thing Korra had pointed out as to why she liked that particular dress).  Lots of handwork, a blind hem, & French seams, all make up the reason why I cannot see myself making this stuff to sell.  I'd have to charge $100+ a dress, just to justify to work, time & effort!

I promised Korra something for her, so that she & Kit can match (again), but I'm not sure what yet.  Quite probably a top of some kind.

  • So cute!

    When you make K's items think about big hems/ability to alter so you don't have to make entire new matching wardrobes every year as K gets bigger. 

    I'm so glad that she is obviously enjoying the doll!

    One step ahead of you  :)  It is lovely that Korra is small for her age & a slow grower  ;)  It helps.
