But I also did not do a lot of sewing. These are very simple uniforms, and the top/tunic has no sewing at all! I have not sewn doll clothes in *years* so I wanted to start with something simple.
I present... Druids! All members of the order wear a wrap tunic and a green robe.
As you can see, there are different styles of robe! Some have hoods, others do not.
The most detailed robe is on the tall My Scene guy on the right, because I think it will end up as part of his character - he is so *very* tall, he is out of scale with most of my dolls. He towers over the Power Team guy! So he is going to hang out with my Monster High dolls as the son of giants.
Clawdeen is modeling an alternative style of robe. All of the clothing is based off of the My Froggy Stuff video on making a Doll Lightsaber (and Jedi robes). She has the more "simple" version made from a folded square of fabric. I have yet to get that style to look good. I am happy that the robes also look good on child dolls, like my little knock-off Kelly here. Also, Druids love animals!
Here we can really see how tall the My Scene guy is compared to the others. Also, Power Team guy forgot his brown wrap tunic. He is studying nature.
The druid order was intended to be photographed outside at lunch, but that did not work, then ona quick afternoon break that never happened.... so they ended up at my cube. Still, they found a bit of nature.
BONUS Outfit! I was happy to make clothes for this Gargoyle, who has only one set. This is entirely no-sew, but I think I will embellish the collar some.
Just look at that collar! Drama!
But it is hard to look dramatic and fierce next to a fuzzy bird. Just saying.
Those cheekbones tho... LoL.
I am happy that I got back into doll sewing with a simple project that I could actually get DONE. The cool thing is that I can add to the robes - add on hoods, trim, closures, etc and make them personalized. Also, the uniform does not include pants because pants are hard to sew.
