Thank you Jenni, I just love this fabric, it really epitomises the beauty of the birds and flora in NZ and the other colours seem to really accentuate it. I wasn't sure the combinations of colours would quite work, but I think they do.
What a pretty top - it just shows that sometimes a pattern that seems too large a scale for a doll can work really effectively if certain elements are placed carefully when cutting out the fabric.
It is good to experiment with different scales occasionally - I think we can often be pleasantly surprised at what actually does work. Of course, you do sometimes have a bit of waste though when trying to incorporated certain elements. Fortunately this small piece of fabric worked well.
Sorry meant to add.....for warmth here. (NOT to cover up the lovely brightness which is a well needed tonic with the weather that we are having at the moment.)
Oh indeed Kendal, it is so cold - the rain makes it feel colder as the temperatures aren't especially low. But I am cold all the time at the moment, so yes a cardigan is definitely needed.
The colours in this outfit are just stunning. It is gorgeous and looks wonderful on Stevie.

DeleteDefinitely a bright and cheerful one for the Summer months and so was pleased to see that she has decided to wear a cardigan over it until then.
