Little Doll For The Take Along Fabric Doll House

Today I worked more on the little doll I made for the doll house.  I made her 2 dresses and some pjs.  It was all a bit difficult for me because it is miniature and i had to do hand sewing which as I've said before isn't my forte.  I did use one pattern I found for the pink dress I made.  I got it from here, Aux Petits Bonheurs de Sophie.  She's got a good tutorial with pictures on there.  The other dress and the pjs I just made it up as I went.  Tomorrow I want to put the rest of the house together and then I'll be done with house number one :)  Here are some pictures of what I got done today.

Continued Progress On Doll House

I took some pictures of what I did yesterday and today.  I'm happy with my progress so far :D  Yesterday I did the back of the house and added decoration to the front of the house.  I wanted the house to have a bit where there could be a picnic like in my Molly's house in this post, Little Fabric Doll House.  So I came up with a fold away garden bit with a picnic blanket. Today I put half of the house together with some decorative bias tape.  I also made the straps and put the little doll together.
The doll is about 5 inches tall :) I got the template for it from this page, diets.ru.  They have a good tutorial on there with pictures.  Links to examples of take along doll houses are in my take-along-fabric-doll-house post.  Tomorrow I'll make her some clothes and put the rest of the inside of the house together.  After that house number 1 will be done :D

Here are some pictures of my progress :)

This is the little doll :) I made her some under pants so she'd be ready for the picture :D 

The front of the house with hedges, flower box and butterfly :) You can see the straps were added.

 The back of the house with trees, bird house and hedges.

 The hedges unbutton to reveal a garden in the backyard perfect for a picnic :)  The flowers were done with my BIGkick machine.

 PB&J sandwiches and glasses of milk :)

Another Fabric Doll House

After I made my lovely doll house I showed you in my Little Fabric Doll House post, I decided to give another kind of house a try.  I'd seen another type of doll house that I thought was cute and would be fun to make.  This is the site I got the tutorial from U.K. lass in U.S. :)  It is a very good clear tutorial with pictures.  I made mine with fabric, felt, batting and plastic canvas and I made a little couch and bed for it.  I got help to make the little couch from here Thatch Cottage.  It's a very nice, clear tutorial.  The little bed was just a sponge I covered in fabric with a pillow I made out of felt and a little blanket.  I used my handy dandy BIGkick machine to make the flowers and some of the other appliques I put around the house.  For this little house I decided to use a bendy rope doll.  I got mine from this shop little oke dolls.  To make the bendy rope doll into an actual doll, I used the tutorial here myrtle and eunice.  It's a good tutorial with pictures.  My bendy doll didn't have a head though, so I made my own Waldorf style head.  There is a good tutorial for making a mini doll head here Atelier Barbara.  I made my little doll into a fairy :) I gave her a pink and white dress and pink wings made of felt.  I also made a unicorn made of felt.  He was very fun to make and also a bit challenging as I am not the best at sewing by hand.  I used ever helpful google to help me find a template or tutorial to make a unicorn and I found this one, horse pattern.  The pattern came from this site Echoes of a Dream.  I can't seem to find the tutorial or the pattern on the page anymore but I might be looking in the wrong place.  I'll share some pictures of my doll house, Lily the Fairy and her unicorn Maximus :)  You can see more pictures on my FB page, Etsy page or my Pinterest :)
