My girl told me that if I were to use Bratz doll as a model to fit for the dresses, all her other Barbie dolls would be able to wear the dresses as well as Bratz is larger in built.
I took her advice and sewed this flouncy dress for Bratz to wear to a dance. This dress reminds me of what Lucille Ball would wear on I Love Lucy.
I didn't do a very good job with the measurement of the flouncy skirt and it ended up too big to fit the bodice. So I had to gather it a bit and my sewing was a bit off. It's hard sewing on tiny garments! How do other people do it? Do they use tiny sewing machines?
I sewed a small ribbon onto the waistline (to hide the untidy sewing and gathers).
This pose is inspired by Flash Dance.
The flouncy skirt is really a large circle with a small centre circle cut out for the waist.

Hi Jane, found you via Naomi's swap with a Difference. I reckon people do just what you've done - hide the untidy bits with embellishments hehe; that's what I do :) BTW have you heard anything further about the swap? I thought Naomi would have contacted us today unless she's still sorting out the list.
