I was haunted by a particular anime’s two piece swimwear for a while nao (Can anyone guess what it is? No prize tho LOL), wanted to make it ^^;;;; After I did some pattern testing, decided to take a break to sew something for hardworking Himitsu :P
The more finished items for the Doll Show 28 are currently sealed in a zip lock bag, I want to take better photos for Mai to post on the page ^^; but can’t wait to show a peek here. Like I said I will also be posting some items online ^o^ (finally?!)
I may post it at my artfire.com page later on and perhaps a set or 2 on ebay, will announce my artfire/ebay listing when it’s up via my twitter and here :)
Meanwhile, all the “test sewings” are also preparations for future items, I just want to make sure they look right before I post anything final ^^;, meanwhile see hardworking Himitsu model my test stuff for me. ^^;
Below is the dress/top I was working on earlier today, there’s actually an even earlier version but Himitsu said it makes her look fat so I no post the photo :P
I changed the pattern a bit but haven’t sewn the 2nd version yet ^^;
Below is my favourite shot, despite the artificial light ^^;
Himitsu must be thinking: “SCORE!”
The ruffles were a pain in the butt to make for the top ^^; I will not be making this design for L or Dynamite bust because, the ruffles make the larger busts look ridiculous, also the ruffles tend to flip all over the place =_=;
Sneak preview of Mirai modeling the test version of the striped top: I made a small change for the final pieces. And oh, she’s on the Dynamite body ^^; Her shorts are also the first test piece of the hot pants ^o^
Looking at her bosom makes me feel a bit breathless LOL
Moar later, thanks for your patience!
Nice outfits Chun, as always :))! I want to find some time to retake sewing, many ideas and little time^^

Oh quite nice, I find Biri Biri’s swimsuit quite charming even of the other characters call it child like.
I look forward to see what you end up putting up for sale.

Thank you! I am gonna focus on gettin stuff ready for doll show, also if in case any left over from doll show I will likely list them too I think? It’s a bit hard to predict what will sell sometimes lol

Tehe Very cute, I love the dress :) and the swim suit is super kawaii ^^

Those DDy clothing items look great! I’ll definately be stocking you on Twitter to see if I can get a set! <3

Thanks for giving the M-bust girls some love. The ruffled rhumba bikini set, however, isn’t really Yumiko’s style. But definitely yay for effort. And it looks great on Himitsu.
It’s kawaii enough and age-appropriate enough for a little girl bathing suit…you might want to do an MDD/MSD version of it. Again, not really Namiko’s style either, but more girly-girl MDDs would look super cute in it.

Yoy sew such lovely stuff! and I have so much extra material lying around… Too bad I have very ‘regular’ sized dolls, no L busts here, lol. Do you do any sort of commission work? It all looks so good!

Haro, sorry I am not doing commission work at the moment ^^; they tend to take me too long to finish and I normally prefer to get paid after everything’s complete, so if I do commission a lot I won’t get paid very often lol when I accumulate some items I may bring them to doll meets I think.
