Mary- Beth Gets a Dress!


I've been working on this doll for weeks. My other job was very busy so doll-making has been behind a bit. Yesterday I finally got her a basic dress started. I love the little antique trim at the waist-line and she's just so sweet in person. I haven't kept any of my dolls yet - have sold them all, but she's tempting to keep. A perfect size. Made with Susan Fosnot's Maggie Bessie pattern - and I decided to name her something with M-B and came up with Mary-Beth.

Mary-Beth is such a pretty girl,Dixie. Congratulations on getting your dolly dress nearly done!
She is a very pretty baby, I look forward to seeing her finished. The dress fabric is really nice, I love the pattern in it.
I had a row of lace flowers like that on a dress I made in jr high...yes, it's antique now! and quite fashionable...she's lovely.

Thanks, all, for the comments. I bought the trim on Ebay and it was labeled as "chemical lace". I have no idea what that means. I know it's not really antique...just vintage, Christine ;-)
