Undergarments Swap Sent


You may remember we showed the vintage handkerchief we were going to use for the undergarments swap.  


These are the three items we made.  We weren't entirely happy with the pattern of the camisole top, found the instructions a little hard to follow for some reason...


Hitty Moana models it before we send it off to Rochelle in USA.

Undergarments Swap Received

We have just received our Hitty Undergarment Swap and several girls tried it on, but it seems it fits Hitty Madge best which we were surprised about, although of course Madge was thrilled to bits.


Pretty silky pantaloons and camisole top


Hitty Madge sits down on the bed to try the petticoat on...


It is a lovely fit.


Thank you so much for our lovely swap Rochelle,  we hope yours arrives soon!

Finishing Hitty 8 and 9

So the two new Hitty girls are finished - well almost.


Rather chunky girls, but the stand and balance well.


Side profiles



Hitty 9 and Hitty 8 side by side

Drying after their first coat of sealer - they were then sanded and coated again.


In all their 'glory'





Dressed - in 'Rose' dresses.


Hitty 9 is for a friend I am doing a swap with so I am making her a little wardrobe to go with her.

This is her second dress with long sleeves for the cooler weather.

Still to make:

Necklace
Christmas Dress
Shawl.
Spring Dress.

Her pantaloons are made, she is wearing those.



Hitty Ethel checks the dress for size, making sure it fits properlyl.




Also finished today are my items for the Hitty Girls Anniversary Challenge 'Undergarments' swap...but I can't show you those yet...but this is what I made them from:


A pretty vintage cotton handkerchief with delicate lace edging.
