muslin fitting

One of my biggest projects this year is a custom wedding dress...and holy cow, am I nervous about it!! I made the muslin pattern and fit her. There needs to be a few tiny adjustments, then after that I can make the style lines on the paper pattern for the official dress. AND!!! My man just bought me a new pro dressform for draping! yay

I recently completed this using the original as a pattern.

 

[Miss_Becky]

Wow Cherry Red!! That is amazing! I was just working on some doll clothes, it's harder than I thought because of the smaller pieces you have to work with. That is an amazing dress!!!!!

Here is what I made today for a doll (nothing compared to miss cherry red's :eusa_clap )

That's lovely CherryRed, Did You make the bonnet also.
Miss_Becky, that is a lovely elegant dress. She just needs som fabulous jewelry.

I have always planned to make clothes for my dolls but I am just too selfish to make anything for anyone but myself. lol

 

[deadpandiva]

Yes, that hat is incredible!

I hope to start selling my hats early next year. I have so much going on right now.

 

[CherryRed]

Miss Becky I can't open your link for some reason.

Wow! What talent! It's no easy thing copying an original and working with pieces so small - It looks very professional, and so sweet!

I made this a few weeks ago when it was still warm outside.

I made this and I thought, "Oh, Ill do a crazy print, like the drawing. Im sure the details will show up. I mean, they do in the drawing!" lol

That is the scope of my logic.
The fabric is cotton with this great atomic like print. The sleeves took some getting use to, and I did have to alter the point on the bodice, the pattern made it too long.

That's so pretty LD! I love the print too

Ditto!

 

[deadpandiva]

My recent mistake. I had made the dress before so I thought I'd be fine. The fabric has no streach so I can't get the bodice over my head. I ended up just making a skirt with a wide waistband since I'd cut out all the fabric. It's a learning experience and if I try this again I'll adapt it to have a back zipper (the longest I can find). It would have been a beautiful dress though.

I need to find a retro top or sweater to match and a petticoat.

 

[Kitty_Sheridan]

Gosh LD, I wish you'd copy that pattern! I love it!!!!!

Thanks ladies!
Kitty, if youd like a copy of the pattern, PM me. Im sure we could work something out.

The pattern is a mail order, so some things dont fit as they should. The yolk in the back was uncomfortably short, so I lengthened it about an inch and a half.
The shirt is actually a skirt form another pattern that I had already sized well, so I just adjusted the width to match up with this bodice's gathers and there you go!

I like it but i kinda wish I had made the yolk in black now that I think about it. You cant see any of the details

Aw well.

[Miss_Becky]

LadyDay, that fabric is awesome!
Do you think you could cut out a new yoke piece in black and re-sew it? Easier said than done, but I'm sure it would be worth it and make you feel happier about it. You could also use the old yoke piece to make a matching clutch or something....It's a very pretty dress.

DeadPanDiva, well at least you got a pretty skirt out of it.
