Haven’t sewn properly during the holiday festive season,had to do some “warm up sewing”before some actual work related sewing…so who benefits from it? ^^;
Taiga said it’s the year of the Tiger,she’s entitled to get something new from me… It’s not perfect,but she got a Yukata from me by twisting my pinky (still gotta make a proper obi and maybe a proper under garment of sorts^^;).
Managed to dig out tiny PVC tenori tiger from the boxes and boxes of stuffs ^^;A bit hard to remember what is where sometimes,especially when I try to pack them safely ^^;
Just before opening the surprise bear from Romina of ihavewings! Tiger on top of Taiga’s head fell over a few times ^^;
This part kinda reminded me of a certain scene in Toradora! with some differences of course:P
Awwwww she loves the surprise bear:)
Also finally finished up a test “winter jacket”for the big girls,but it’s not well fitted (grrr) I almost did not compete it ^^; Sometimes things just don’t fit the way I like,and it stalls my sewing progress =_=;I have to Ganbarimasu x_x!!!
Below,the collar can be better,the front part is a bit misaligned and the snaps shows a bit too much for my liking *bangs head on wall*:P
omake LOL
Thanks for coming back to check out dolly photos:)
Anyone of you guys use etsy to buy stuff? Or ebay? ^^;
No related posts.
Looked around Etsy but never bought from them.
Also,Taiga looks lovely!

So cool,I love Yutakas whether it be in 2D or 3D girls. I find dollfies and stuffed animals are a really got combination,Taiga just drives that point home to me.
I amazed at that jacket,if you hand’t pointed out the “booboos”wouldn’t have noticed them.

I like the doll and doll combo too ^o^ Taiga is still holding onto the bear XD The jacket’s fabric is a bit stretchy so it tend to go out of shape when I sew =_= quite a pain,but the texture and feel of it is so nice!

That’s cute yukata. I look forward to seeing it complete with the finalized obi:)

Thanks!:D Taiga’s body,her hips are a lot wider than her bust area even so it’s a bit tricky to make without having it look strange =_=;/ I gotta work on it a bit more ^^;

Hehe,the pattern on Taiga’s Yutaka looks a little Christmasy ^^;But lovely nonetheless!

Hahaha~ I was going to pick a fabric with cupcake and pastry pattern ^^;XD But I want to try the pattern first before I use anything final,even this version I wish it is slightly longer and also cover her joints a bit more! Thanks Kodomut:D
