I didn't intend to sew another outfit for my Blythe doll,
Bonnie, so soon; but when I was working on a dog-themed heart for my
heart blog, inspiration struck--I had seen dolls with headbands with an ornament of some kind... and a flat heart is an ornament...and I have cute scottie-dog fabric that would be a good doll dress...and I could put a scottie dog on the heart...and it became something I HAD to make, quick!
The dress is made from the same pattern as the one in the
previous post. The pattern includes two pockets, but I decided to make it with just one heart-shaped pocket (I wonder what a dolly would carry in her pocket? I always have a ChapStick and a tissue in mine!)
To make the scottie shape, I simply took a scrap of the fabric with the dog on it, placed it on the black felt, and cut around it with small, sharp scissors. I sewed the finished heart onto paw-print ribbon, and voila! A headband!
It looks cute, but the ribbon doesn't stay on her head very well, and the paw prints are rubbing off from being handled. I need to come up with something better the next time I make headgear for Bonnie.
