All caught up!



Where was I?


Ok.
I was in hospital.
Just for a test.
And the test is done.

And I am fine 
and have the photographs to prove it.

And, uh.
Yeah.

So, that took out a couple of days 
but I'm caught up now.

Here is Steampunk Rabbit


She's sewn into her pin tucked shirt
and her lacy bloomers.

She has a tail.


And there are buttons down the back of her shirt.


Even though she is sewn into her clothes
they're all properly made.

French seamed, too!

The blouse is lined in the bodice,
front and back.
There's a button on her bloomers
over the tail
and 
lace around the edges.


Her lace skirt is lined
and sewn into a waistband.

And see.



Now she has stockings!



Next is the hat
and the boots
and the little tailored jacket!

    1. Oh, yes. Have to watch the health, because when it's not good everything else is harder.

      Thank you. I'm glad you liked the clothes. I'm so pleased with the pintucks that I might try it again, maybe on some frilly doll undies.

    1. Thank you! The french seams are just insurance. I don't have an overlocker (serger?) and it's the only way I know to keep things looking neat.

    1. Thank you, Mary Ann. She's been a joy to make (apart from the wrong lace being sent) and I'm going to be sorry to let her go when she's done.

    1. Thank you! I have to admit, I'm now on the lookout for stripy t-shirts to cut up. Stretchy knits don't scare me any more!
