>Hey all,
Sorry for the delay. I had to get more orders out. Still shipping some as I type this.
It is now time for Stephanie & Jocelyn to be costumed. Each girl will be dressed in matching tiny blue & white pinstripe sailor dresses with white & red trim. They will also have white knee socks & leather Mary Jane type shoes.
I was lucky to find a very fine cotton pinstripe that will be perfect for their tiny dresses:
That’s little Stephanie hiding under the fabric ?

>HI,
I only have 3 Lily Kits left at the Monthly Special price. After next week they will be moved to my in stock page at the normal price.
>Hey all,
Thanks so much for your continued interest and for visiting my blog and leaving such lovely comments. I am currently working on finishing up all of the Lily special of the month doll kits as well as a few other orders. The portrait sisters will resume soon. Next they will be getting their undergarments!

Here’s the girls all wigged! They are really starting to come to life now!
Here you can see how Jocelyn’s hair progressed. Stephanie’s hair was finished the same way. Their hair still needs a good final styling and clean up, but that won’t be done until the very end after they are dressed. Notice the tiny fringe hairs around the hair line. They help to add realism to the dolls. They will also be refined at the end.
