Christmas Holidays!

I've just about finished the long dress, though I didn't wear it in the end. I did make a beautiful faux fur stole which I did wear. I am hoping to get some more of the fabric to make a pretty cape.
Back to Lolita sewing in the new year hopefully I will show some more of the outfits I have made already and more ideas for future projects.

Also hoping to try some cupcake recipes over the holiday.

Merry Christmas!

Christmas party time!

Its nearly Christmas so I thought I would like to create a beautiful christmas inspired Lolita outfit. Based a little on this Baby the Stars Shine Bright number.











However my seasonal dream dress is on hold as I am also making a dress for the Christmas Party and I don't hink I'll have time for both.
So the other dress isn't really Lolita but if you interested its going to be a bit like this:
Its a slinky floor length dress - Bugsy Malone style. So I hoping to make a couple of alterations to New Look
pattern 6507

Its going to be in black satin and I might do a fake fur stole to go with it instead of the jacket. Lets see how it goes....
