This is for Angel as well, but she's not wearing it because I haven't made a top for it yet - so it's on my Chicaloca instead.

This is another infant skirt repurposed for dolls. This was the "back" half of it. It was just plain white, so I added the two layers of lace and the blue ribbon. But it still needed more, so I pulled out the beads and added the vine and leaf pattern all along the bottom portion. I haven't put any on top, because I think the shirt I make would cover it, but I can always go back :) The "pattern" of the vine is random, I just went up and down however I felt and then when it came time for leaves I put them on randomly as well. The vine is from Miyuki Delica beads, the leaves are Czech glass.

Full skirt.

You know, I do things like this while I'm watching TV because I can rarely just focus on one thing like that. Unless I'm watching something that has subtitles I tend to want to be multi-tasking when I watch :) I find it really relaxing, and given my current stress level, I need all the relaxing I can get LOL.
