approaches to making beautiful clothing and accessories.
An expert workshop on designed couture fashions for
your art dolls. Making stylish, exotic, and
beautiful garments and accessories, such as hats, shoes,
and purses, is an essential part of designed an art
doll, and a task that many doll designers find daunting.
In addition to instructions for creating a basic doll
designed to fit all of the featured garments, readers
will find full-color, step-by-step instruction for
making a vintage 1940s suit, a 1960s collaged and
layered outfit, a formal gown, and a fantasy fairy
ensemble with wings. Each ensemble teaches new
techniques, from decorative appliqués and beaded trims
to draping techniques for silks and satins, to dyeing,
stamping and painting effects. |
