Cherry's Wardrobe, 2020 Edition
Posted: Thu Feb 13, 2020 11:25 pmI made a resolution that I would make Cherry a kimono for each month of 2020. This is January, her New Year's kimono. (Yes, I know her character is Korean, and the doll is from China. I like kimono better than hanbok or cheongsam, although I intend to make both of those styles for her eventually. Go with me on this.)
These are her tabi and zori. The socks are attached to the sandals.
February kimono! It's really more spring-ish, since it's butterflies and flowers, but it's what I had to hand, so.
Besides, it suits her so well.
This is Riri's Valentine's Day dress. This is going to be a busy season for me; I have to finish her Mardi Gras dress (I'm from Mobile, the Mother of Mystics, where Mardi Gras was first celebrated in the new world), then I have to do her March kimono (and get her ready for Hinamatsuri), and I have to make her a St. Patrick's Day dress too...I think I'll have to forego making her an Azalea Trail Maid dress until at least April. (Her old one doesn't fit anymore, of course.)
A detail of the sleeves for the dress.
Finally, Riri has a very important question for all of you:
