THE PLANNING SESSION.


 Rebecca Cottontail and I met to discuss dresses for her daughter and also for the family that live in the dolls house in Wellington. News has it that the family of cats that live in the doll's house have been joined by a rabbit family too, so plenty of dresses will be needed.  we agreed on a simple shift pattern, that will open down the back making it easier for small hands to dress the animals.

She selected some bright shades of felt. to which I approved of.
I have read on line that some folk are having problems with felt fluffing and colour rubbing onto the animals., but do not expect this problem as I am using good quality merino felt, also all necklines and armhole with be finished with buttonhole stitch which will along with giving a good finish strengthen these edges.

We met again later and Candy Cottontail modelled the first of the small dresses for her mother, along with dresses for candy . six to eight dresses this size will be needed for the doll's house families Christmas box. The tiny dresses will be ideal stitching while watching the TV in the evening.




Our photography session did not go unnoticed  with Kaytu walking through the set a couple of times before agreeing to watch from the side.
