Making of the Mirai Seifuku

/29 Comments/in , /by

As promised, here it is! A photographic documentation of the making of the Mirai Seifuku ^^!

I’m a big fan of Danny Choo’s Mascot(s) – Mirai Suenaga and sister Haruka Suenaga.  Heck, I even named my Yukino Dollfie Dream after Mirai! When I was influenced by Danny and fell in love with Yukino – a Dollfie Dream, I knew I had to eventually make my own Mirai Seifuku! ^^;  I guess Danny had a same idea for his Dollfie Dream, so he commissioned me to make a set for his lovely Dollfie Dream girls :)

It was quite challenging, as I needed to create a pattern from scratch, and make sure the pattern match closely to the actual Seifuku design by Azami Yuko Sensei. Thru researching various links, I found this particular japanese tutorial particularly helpful. (Domo Arigato!) Link broken :(

Test top for L bust part II

/14 Comments/in , /by

New wig (bought 2nd hand off a friend) and test blouse. She’s wearing the pleated skirt I made way before — these days usually only have time to make at most 1 item as I have other stuff to deal with at current =_=;/

I still need to tweak a part of the bodice area of this top as in certain angles she’s kinda erm exposing herself a bit more than neccessary ^^; will probably have to make something for her to wear inside this blouse.

Anyways having some pretty good light at home, so took some quick pictures during lunch time :3

Mirai Suenaga Cosplay completed!

/24 Comments/in , /by

So remember the Mirai cosplay test sewing?

That version was made for M-bust, and not 100% fine tuned, so when I got the L-bust for my Yukino Mirai chan, I made another version for L-bust and included more details of the actual Mirai Seifuku (school uniform) as kindly commissioned by who else but the actual owner of Mirai Suenaga ^O^!

Mail Loot for the dollies

/1 Comment/in /by

A couple of beautiful hand made dresses arrived in the mail!  They are carefully made by joeykblythe and were meant for my Lati yellow dollies, but 2 other dolls actually jumped into them faster than speeding bullets ^^; Picture above was taken after I made those 2 take them off (you believe me? lol)

Test top for L bust and glasses

/5 Comments/in /by

Today took a little time to do a test top (semi edited from my previous pattern made for the M bust). Still need a bit of tweaking in the bust area, but thankfully still wearable, had to hide a small flaw with the ribbon in front :P
Also dug out a couple pair of doll’s glasses I got the last time I went to Japan (intended for my 45cm MSD sized doll but too big for her, but too feminine for my 60cm boy doll).

I dunno, found that this pair of glasses made her look a bit more mature than I like? ^^; Maybe would suit better with school uniform or a plain top ^^; (think sexy teacher ^o^) One thing tho, this pair of glasses keep slipping off her nose!

A few more photos :D Warning, there’s a couple of cleavage photo right at the end, so you be warned ^^;

Daisy and Clover photoshoot :)

/2 Comments/in /by

Below is a photo of Clover, the little lambie hand puppet for 11-12 inch tall dolls —  he could also be a finger puppet for humans! Clover belongs to Daisy, a custom blythe doll more back story here.

I know Blythe dolls are not everyone’s cuppa tea, but since they got me started on my dolly obsession hobby, I really have no reason to not feature them every now and then, even tho I have started owning some other types of dolls, like Licca, Mamachapp, Dollfie Dream etc.  Today I am going to feature some current photos of my visiting blythe and her little companion, Daisy and Clover. Daisy currently belongs to a dear friend of mine living a few hours drive away, I originally conceptualised, customised and sew most of her outfit to enter a Blythe Beauty Contest held by CWC in Japan.

Lots more photos! Read more

So instead of making the same uniform over and over (and making mistakes at the same time ^^;) I decided to do a basic blouse from a tweaked pattern from my first attempt. Skirt is from previous attempt :3
