I finally was able to digitize a lace collar for my Mini American Girl Doll dress.  I made a few dresses during the past week and listed them on ebay.  They turned out pretty cute.  I made a long dress with a square collar and a butterfly design embroidered on the collar.  I figured out I could use my regular sewing machine to put a scalloped edge on the sleeve and dress bottom so it all tied together nicely.  The second outfit was a tan dress wtih a floral pinafore.  I used bias binding on neck egde and sleeve opening so it was finished off with no raw edges. 

But today I digitized a freestanding lace collar.  So I am going to make a velvet dress and add the collar to it.  I have some lace that I purchased that should go with it nicely that I am going to add to the bottom edge of the dress.  I’m thinking short ruffley sleeves might be cute on this one.  I forgot to mention that I also was able to make the tights to match the outfits.  I went to the fabric store yesterday and they had the perfect colors in swimsuit type material.  So I think I’ll have a few listing just for sets of tights too.
