Love the ruffles! Those colours look great on her by the way!

Thanks! ^^ I'm really glad with how it came out, I think I found what her style is. Ruffles and more ruffles. XD She has a purple more casual version of that dress minus the butterfly bead.

This is cute. I guess you need a lot more patience sewing tiny things than one does for the bigger dolls!

One great thing about tinies is the basic principles of sewing. It CAN be taken in. Make a lot more seam allowance than you normally do for simple things like t shirts, dresses, pants, etc. then, stitch it and use a small zigzag to serge and trim off the excess! That way you don't have to hand stitch a lot. Ball pointed needles are amazing with stretch materials, and stretch materials also allow a lot of leeway for fitting. And PATIENCE! I've been sewing for years and bitty bitsu clothing makes me want to cry sometimes LOL! Just think.. once you've mastered these, you can sew for anything else ever! XD

XD You have a very good point there. Since getting my bitty I've been sewing a lot more things for her then my other dolls. Her and Haruka are spoiled rotten. Haruhi has pants, dresses, shirts, shorts and a kimono.
