Bride Doll

[Kelle]

Hello there... I finished this this weekend for my sister for Christmas (she collects Bride Dolls). It is my first real thread project (other than a few bookmarks) and it was pretty easy as long as I made sure I read the directions correctly :eek I did everything from her base skirt, to arranging her little bouquet, to making her veil. It was actually very fun, I really enjoyed working with the thread to make her...

Anyways, I'm really pleased with how it came out and my sister (and everyone else) was very impressed as well, to say the least...

And without further ado, here she is...

She is so pretty and you did a great job. I attempted to make a Princess Diana Bride Doll, but lost interest and never finished. It was a great pattern and after seeing your bride doll I wish I finished mine. Thanks for sharing you pics.

Gorgeous,Kelle!

[redbird51]

wow! very pretty. you did great work.

[Kelle]

Thank you all for your kind comments :blush. I am amazed at what can be done with a ball of thread and a hook! In retrospect, she probably should not have been my first "non-bookmark" thread project but what can I say? I am a determined perfectionist (sometimes not a good combination :devil)! Parts of her were frogged a number of times as I had a tendency to read the pattern too fast sometimes :eek Oh well, such is life, eh?

.... and I have lots of thread left over...perhaps I will try my hand at a doily next? :hook

Anyways, thanks again for looking...

Very nice! As soon as I get my pix ready to upload, I'll share mine too. I did a starched doll as a bride doll (I've never made Barbie clothes), complete with veil, bouquet and a lace-edged train similar to yours.

[Lavelle26]

That is really beautiful. Makes me wish we could wear things like that in real life. ;) Great job on this one.

[Tinamah]

I love the neck/chest area. The whole thing is lovely. Is that an Annies Attic or Paradise Pattern?

[Kelle]

Thanks again to all who replied! :) I really think this was one of my favourite things to create - who knew I'd like thread so much?! And I agree with you Anna! But if it took me (I'm guessing) 40+ hours to make this, how long would it take for a full-sized one?! My head is swimming from that thought (either that or it is from the Nyquil! lol)

To Tinamah: This was from a[n Annies Attic] Leaflet / Booklet called "1900 Bridal Gown" Annie's Calendar Bed Doll Society...
