Crochet scraps

I'm continuing my project to use up all yarn scraps. Yeah, I know its futile, but I'll try anyway. :)
 

First, I made a bluish mini dress for Pretty in Plaid AA Barbie. Wow, that doll was hard to get! She must've gone a long way before she fell into my sis' hands and finally - into mine (Thanks sis!), cause her head is glued on. Anyway, she's still as pretty as she should be. She is also very difficult to photograph: when I finally managed to work with her overall stiffness and hair picking up static or lighting problems, there always was a stray speck of dust on her face.

Then, there was a patchy tunic for Birthstone Beauty. I guess it could use some leggins...
Again, it probably wasn't my day for photographing. That's what happens when you want to document something fast. ;)


No tunic here, but the portray is nice enough to share. :)
And finally, a greenish dress. I'm quite happy with the corset. It cost me lots of unraveling and making again, but then the skirt was quick to make.


It feels so cool to turn those scraps I was about to throw away into something, lets say, applicable. :)

  1. Bardzo podoba mi się trzecia sukieneczka, chciałbym mieć taką cierpliwość...
    Ze swoim charakterem, w wielkich bólach i trudach, wydziergałbym co najwyżej ramiączko... :/
    (...a potem musiałbym je spruć bo pewnie byłoby krzywe i z supłami...) :/

    1. Jesteś pewien, że to cierpliwość, a nie jakieś zaburzenie obsesyjne? Bo ja nie. ;P

  3. Mnie najbardziej podoba się druga kreacja, nie tylko nietuzinkowy krój, ale i zestawienie wzoru.

  8. Podoba mi się asymetryczna tunika Birthstone Beauty. Zrobiłaś jej bardzo ładny portret.

    1. Dzięki! Tunika jest symetryczna, tylko Birthstone wygina się do zdjęcia. ;)

    2. Trochę nieprecyzyjnie się wyraziłam - chodziło mi o asymetryczne rozłożenie kolorów :)

    3. Wystraszyłam się, że wygląda na nierówną. ;)

    1. No, I just keep photos on thedollpage. I rarely sell anything, because I'm very slow at making new things.
