Meet Little Lippie

Here she is, with a dress that is so easy to make. Just thread an elastic band onto the top of a broad tube, sewn from a wee scrap of material. Sew in ribbons to make a halter neck. Lace at the hem is a present from Pauline.

Cute panty converted from a glove, $2 for a pair, sold at Daiso. Bow, also from Daiso.

Boots -- table leg socks from a set of four, $2, Daiso.

Pretty in pink

This little girl is about six inches tall. I haven't got a name for her yet. Any ideas? :) Took me an afternoon to complete. Pig tail added after hair (brushed out crocheted cap) was sewn onto head. Tights made from a sock. Scarf made from a bit of lace. Bonnet and sweater knitted. 

Little Lulu

Little Lulu is just about two inches tall, ready for the next flea market. Made her hair from pink and gold satin ribbons. Second attempt in making hair this way. Some ribbons are easier to unravel and I was lucky to have some broad pink ones on hand -- a breeze to pull the horizon strand, leaving the vertical ones as silky hair.

Hair like satin

This is the first time I tried hair that is made from satin ribbons. There are lots of tutorials online teaching you how you can make wefts from satin ribbons. Fascinating! You are supposed to straighten to kinks with one of those heated devices for real hair. But I didn't and it seemed to be ok :)
