Yesterday I received my shipping notice from Luts, that my Coco is on her way, so it shouldn't be long now before I will have a new girl to dress. As she is an anime styled doll I think I will probably go with something like this.I have always wanted to sew a Magical Girl's costume, however, the colours will depend on the wig. I ordered a KDW-99 (High Lime-Sienna Brown) in the Heat Resistant Fibre, but I'm not sure if it's really a lime colour, as it looks more like a pale aqua to me. With colours varying between computer screens, it's really hard to know what to expect.
If it's a pale aqua, I will be thrilled as it will certainly suit this design, which I intend trimming with gathered chiffon and bling. However, if it's lime I may go more trendy and use a metallic trim of some sort.
No use speculating now, I will just have to wait until the parcel arrives and I have the wig in my hot little hands! :)
Have a great weekend everyone.
Hello Sandi,
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! your ideas for the clothes sound great! I cannot wait for her to arrive and see your creation.
Big hug,
Giac
I expect she will be here early next week, so not long to wait Giac.

Oh this is exciting news! I bet you can hardly wait. It is so much fun to open a new package, I hope it arrives quickly!
ReplyDeleteIt seems we are all a little impatient. All three of us!! LOL!
DeleteYes, new dolly parcels are almost as much fun as Christmas.
Cheers,

Actually, they are more fun than Christmas. Dolly parcels contain gifts we actually want and dream about, Christmas gifts are sometimes hard to be thankful for (oh yay, thanks for the orange dressing gown!).
DeleteYes, I have received presents like that myself, well not orange exactly, but pink with white polka dots! :)
DeleteHow exiting, Sandi! Coco is a lovely doll, can't wait to see yours.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Lily ^^
Thanks Lily, she will be my first anime doll and I just wish the postman worked weekends! Still I have waited this long another couple of days won't kill me. :)
