Mian Mian gets a jumper
Posted: Sat Sep 21, 2013 2:05 amHi all!
My Dikadoll Mian Mian has already a year, and never got any clothes. So yesterday I decided to finally sew something for him.
I took Catzilerella tutorial viewtopic.php?f=15&t=1403 and started to work.
Unfortunally I haven't a printer yet (I moved to another city recently and still have to rebuy something), so I had to quickly print the tutorial in my lunch break, and once at home I resized the pattern by hand, with only a rule and a calculator.
Once I had my pattern, I lost I don't know how much time trying to figure how to attach pieces together... my brain was tired and refused to understand Catzilerella photos (that are very clear indeed -_-)
Then, I made the bad, bad choice to sew my first jumper in a corduroy that frayed like hell: the seams took too much cloth and I ended with a jumper almost finished, but that never had any chance to fit my Mian Mian -_- so I restarted using some soft, felt fabric and more seam allowance.
It finally fits! I searched for some small buttons (Mimiwoo has some doll sized buttons, but I don't wanted to order some for this time... It take too long to arrive!)

Cute clothes for a cute boy! Sorry for the photos bad quality, but it was 11 PM and I used my cellphone camera too ^_^'''

Chillin' on my bookshelf!
(Thank you Catzilerella =^_^=)
