Today is the Springtime Blythe meet here in Portland, and my dolly insisted that I make a new frock for the occasion. (She insisted on an Easter bonnet, too, but I'll share photos of that later on.) I just can't say no to those big blue/pink/mint-green eyes of hers, so here's her latest outfit.

For some time now, I've had a bee in my bonnet to make human-sized versions of my dolly clothes, and I think this may be where I begin. A simple dirndl made with petaled fabric seems much less intimidating than a full fitted bodice, so I'll have to do a bit of thinking to grade this design to more of a me-size.

Until I figure it out, I'll just have to lust after my doll's wardrobe (which is a common enough occurrence by now). If your gal needs a flower dress, too, you can find the DIY kits in my shop.

Happy spring, everyone!
