Another commission for a vintage inspired bubble dress. I've included the inspiration pic at the end. The bodice had to be simplified to reduce the number of tucks but I still got a few in. The fabric came from Joann's new customizable fabric line. What's great about it is that you can scale down any of their designs to however small you need. But they don't have a lot of fabric choices that will work for doll clothes. This is the light weight quilting cotton and it's a much looser weave than lawn so it lacks that silky feel. Their linens sound a bit heavy going by the ounces per yard. They do offer a batiste but it's (GASP) polyester. So the client chose this beautiful hydrangea print and I scaled it down to work for this dress which came out really cute.
