<p>[QUOTE="Christmasjoy, post: 2836768, member: 164"]The body of the doll is far too small for the head and shoulders and you may have trouble finding a nice fit for her. A pretty fine white cotton ankle length dress with both inset and edge trim would better suit her ... with a bonnet too. the dress could be trimmed with pink and cream silk rosetts made by gathering silk ribbon at the edge until it forms a frill and then gathering the whole thing together .. one can use any colour that you prefer .. roses on the bonnet too. l Like I said before she is on a too small body and it would probably be better to look for a full length dress. The flowers and bows can be attached at the waist and bonnet, shoulder or hem .. or any place one chooses. There ... in my head I have been designing it, Sorry if I bored anyone .. my mind designs things all the time, I will now rest my swollen eyes .... Joy. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
