BACK AGAIN AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN


 I have decided to keep records of my newest project separate from my main blog, so it’s time to visit the "other side of the mountain" again.

This story starts when we refurnish Jan’s dolls house for the littlest member of the family. The house bought 50 years ago in Melbourne Australia for Jan was later handed on to her daughters, both now in their twenties and the decision was made to hand it on to their young cousin  two year old Eve. This time a new family was added to live in the house, and it was the  Sylvania Persian Cat family.

I kept  finding on Pinterest lots of ideas for clothes for Sylvania families and having decided to it would be fun to make some- for sometime in the future when Eve is a little older, came the need to own a family myself to use to model the creations I plan to make. So on Friday a Cottontail rabbit family came to live with me.
Mrs Rebecca Cottontail is to be my fashion adviser and we will work together first on a collection of clothes suitable for a small girl to be easily able to dress her doll's house  cats  and later  a collection for the Cottontail family. Rebecca wasted no time in selecting for her self a simple day dress with matching hat. The skirt is a autumn toning  Liberty print with a bodice of cream merino wool felt



We are now looking at style and colours for dresses for her daughter's age group. and will be back in the next post to share with you our choices.
