Glitter Girl Drop Waist Dress
I keep trying to rotate through the dolls to make sure nobody leaves with a small donation wardrobe. This is one of Char Caywood's Wellie Wishers patterns that seem to fit the Glitter Girl dolls fairly well. You can purchase the pattern here.
Notes:
I originally discovered Lizbeth threads at Joann's but even back then the supply was limited. I discovered Handy Hands Tatting and this is really a note to myself to remember where to find it when I run out.
The variegated thread is size 3 Lizbeth Springtime. The blue size 3 from Threadart that I had left over from making Barbie's Prairie dress. The white is Aunt Lydia's Fashion 3.
I use a size e for the dress and underwear and I used a D for the shoes this time. I'm thinking a C would be worth a try as the shoes are still a little big.
The only minor changes I make to this pattern is I finish the back in variegated but follow the directions for using white at the top. I also finish the edges around the underwear. I just find its neater and less likely to snag.
The dress is closed with a snap at the back.
