NEEDLEWORK

More for the little dress shop!!...

Another made with size 30 thread and the 14 hook!!!!!

A little something for the ultramodern bride with a short swingy skirt!!

I eliminated the problem of the long stiff pony tail on these little plastic dolls using twisties!!! I removed the rubberband and throughly wet the hair, combed down in place, trimmed it evenly, then I cut the small twist ties in half, then folded the piece in half over the strands of hair, pinched tight and rolled, then folded the ends of the twist tie over to hold in place...

Maybe something sleek in pink for the mother of the bride!!! or a smooth fitting creamy yellow and there is alway the sophisticated black!!!

Or maybe m'lady would prefer something a little more glitzy with beading or gold metallic....there are over 700 beads worked into this little dress, I used the clear iridescent beads, sorry they do not show up very well.... I did not curl the hair on the doll in yellow, just took down the ponytail, wet, trimmed and smoothed it out, then wrapped twisties around the head to hold in place till throughly dry....
