Remove the pins and sew the seams together for a Civil War doll dress…

Hi everyone,
REMINDER: Tonight “Summer’s Delight” ends on Ebay. It’s the debut dress for Mae, a My Meadows 15″ doll. I have already had “the talk” with Mae, and she reluctantly took everything off and is back in the dolly shelf.

It really is amazing how sewing the pieces of a doll dress together can make such a big difference. Last night you saw Rebecca’s dress being held together with straight pins…

…and now you will see it in its new state.

The snaps are sewn on the cuffs, but the dress isn’t hemmed yet.

I have looked at the buttons again and I’m leaning toward the little blue glass button. I even took a scrap of a fabric that matches the green leaves in the fabric and fringed the edges quickly “just to see” what it might look like as a little bow underneath the blue button… If I decided on that button, I would of course, make the fringed piece better and even. The green leaves in the fabric doesn’t show up very well in my pictures, but the little fringed piece is a perfect match.

I’ll try to have some choices for you tomorrow… and see what else Rebecca might need for this set…

See you then,
Blessings, Jeanne
