I finally got the energy to sew something for Lottie.
I bought a pack of felt from Mr. DIY and downloaded this dress pattern for Lottie and modified it so that I could make a dress similar to the one worn by the doll from the Netflix show called Squid Game. I made this last month:
The colors are off. I can explain. There were two kinda of orange felt from the pack I bought, but I didn’t want to mess with the darker orange felt before I got the modification correctly, so I used the lighter orange.
I also didn’t want to copy the dress the exact same way. I took some artistic liberty to make the sleeves of the orange overall dress a bit capped and the neckline much higher.
The sleeves of the yellow top is also shorter because the material is stiff and I don’t want the thickness of it to affect Lottie’s articulation.
The darker orange looks a bit too bright though for the costume, yes?
I used an Instagram filter to make the dress look darker and match the Squid Game doll dress, haha.
I don’t know if I want this for Lottie’s Halloween costume or I’m gonna make another one. I’ll think about it.
I styled the dress differently afterwards. Lottie is wearing a Paddington Bear hat, a Licca watch and Muddy Puddles’ rain boots.
Now she reminds me of Madeline and it gives me ideas, hahaha.
