Daisy's Top

As I was continuing to unpack and

organize the Doll Room closet

The New Doll Room

I found the cutest set of 

Palazzo pants! I had forgotten

we even had them, but I had held on 

to them hoping someone 

could use them.

These Palazzo pants fit Daisy.

But, we could not find

a top that suited them.

Daisy, the fashionista, did not approve

of this boring white top.

(Daisy's words, not mine)

I looked for an older hanky that might work.

I found this partial hanky. 

It had all the right colors.

(Hmm, there's a hole right in front)

This hanky is Partial because it was used 

to make this little hanky dress for

My Patsyette, Helena.

I folded the remaining hanky in two

and cut it in half. One half is going

 to be the front of Daisy's new top.

The remaining fabric will become

some sort of sleeve.

Here is a photo of what I have come up with.

As usual, I am making this up as I go along.

I gathered a little in front, then pinned

the remaining fabric as sleeves.

(How can I fix that hole in front?)

This is how I fixed the hole.

I used Fray Check as a glue to

attach a small triangle of hanky fabric 

to the back side of the top. This works 

because of the lightweight fabric 

the hanky is made from.

The finished top is pretty simple.

I think it's kind of cute!

"Daisy let's try in your new top..."

"Now, Where is Daisy?"

"Daisy?"

"Daisy!!"

"OH! There you are..."

"Mommy, why does my tummy stick out?"

"Hmm, I don't know Daisy, 

but it sure is cute.

Let's try on your new top."

"OK!!"

"Oh Mommy!  I like it! But take my 

picture jumping on the bed!!"

"DAISY!!"

"What Mommy?"

"You shouldn't jump on the bed."

"Why?"

"Just because! Besides I need a 

picture of the back of your top."

"Oh Biscuit!"

"How does it look Mommy?"

"Pretty cute!"

"Can we please have just the pants wearers?"

"Aww, mommy Biscuit just wants

 his picture made too."

"Very nice ladies!"

"I'm not a lady momma, I'm just a girl!"

Daisy and Biscuit.
