My July Girl ready! Moja Lipcowa Dziewczyna gotowa!

So she is ready now.:)
I have to admit I wanted to make the Bride for sometime now.
It's probably because of Betsy and Victoria's wedding stories.;)
Or maybe it's because of Sans who liked my first Bride a bit when she saw her while visiting me.:)
Or maybe because of this pretty lace I ordered from Cottonholic.
I knew it must be used in the wedding dress.



This time the skirt was sewn together and so was the lace on it. Being not-gifted-sewer-at-all I still think it looks quite good.





The rest of the gown was glued together with lace on top of it.




The necklace is made of real pearls. I was really happy I could finally use them.:)


About her hair, well....it's her second hairdo as I wanted to add a few coloured strands. And of course it was a complete disaster. I had to throw out a lot of viscose to the trashes. While working on her hair again I managed to add only one fair strand to her forelocks.





Hope you will like My July Girl!:)

No i Dziewczyna Lipca gotowa. Od jakiegoś już czasu chciałam zrobić suknię ślubną. Sama nie wiem czemu? Może to przez weselne historie Betsy i Victorii? Może dlatego, że moja pierwsza suknia ślubna bardzo podobała się Sans. A może dlatego, że urzekła mnie koronka, którą udało mi się kupić w Cottonholic. Wiedziałam, że użyć jej mogę tylko w sukni ślubnej. Tym razem spódnica jest ręcznie szyta i ma też naszytą koronkę. Góra jednak jest już jak zwykle klejona.:) Naszyjnik zrobiony jest z najprawdziwszych perełek. Cieszyłam się , że w końcu znalazłam dla nich zastosowanie. Co do włosów to..jest to druga fryzura lalki. Zachciało mi się dodać kolorowych pasemek no i poniosłam sromotną klęskę na tym polu, z wyrzuceniem do smieci całkiem sporej ilości wiskozy. Koniec końców udało mi się dodać aż jedno jasne pasemko do grzywki.;)Mam nadzieję, że Moja Dziewczyna Lipca Wam się spodoba.:)

Daydreamer said...

Oh, EWA!!!! What a GORGEOUS Gown!!! If you had not told me you could not sew, I would never believe it from looking at this gown!!! The Lace is PERFECT! And the way it fits on the Bodice is Divine!!! As for making doll hair... you are WAY ahead of me .... and MUCH Braver!!! (If you want to see my attempts you just have to look at Belle and Henry!!!LOL!!! All the other dolls I have made are still bald....)
Your July Lady is a TRIUMPH!!!

Sans! said...

WOW! That bridal gown is just gorgeous! Fit for Kate Middleton! :):) You are always good with gowns.

Ewalina, this doll reminds me so much of you , really! Of course, you are way prettier but she does look a little like you right?

Are you going to give her a veil ? Or more flowers in her hair?

Fabiola said...

Your July girl is fantastic. She's very elegant in her refined dress.
Bye Faby

Wow! She's gorgeous, Ewa! Great work! The lace is beautiful, and her hair looks so realistic and pretty. She's got a nice figure, and your bodice really accentuates it--woowee! :-) xo Jennifer

Betsy!!! You were my source of inspiration!! You and your talents! You know it by now, don't you?:)
Yes, I too think the lace is just perfect.:)
Happy happy you like her!!!!
Thank you!!!!!

The Old Maid said...

Me, Sam? it seems to me it's most probably the only gown I will never wear.:) So noo, not me.:)
Oh she is keeping her veil in her hands.;D
And yes, dearest Sam, I thought about flowers which I honestly LOVE to add to the dolls but kept myself very strongly away from this idea this time.;D
But the next Bride probably will have quite a lot of flowers, if she ever appears that is.;D

Absolutely fantastic. She looks GORGEOUS!

Eliana said...

She is an absolutely gorgeous bride! ;)

Unknown said...

Prześliczna!! Cudowna robota:) Oby tak dalej:)

Kaya said...

Ależ ona jest romantyczna. Suknia wyszła super. Ja jednak lubię jak sukienki są "ściągalne" zawsze łatwiej je wyprać lub można je zmieniać. Natomiast całość wyszła rewelacyjnie. Brawo. :) Czy ta lalka była z gotowych elementów? Mam coraz większa ochotę na zrobienie samodzielnie lalki. Wiem, że to nie jest łatwe. Mogłabym tylko z gotowych odlewów coś stworzyć. :)

The Old Maid said...

Dziękuję serdecznie Magdo!!!:)

The Old Maid said...

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you, Brigit!!!!!
Hugs and kisses

The Old Maid said...

Thanks a lot WCD!!!

The Old Maid said...

Thank you very much Eliana!!

The Old Maid said...

Serdeczne dzięki Efa!!!:)
Uściski

The Old Maid said...

Kaya - ja też o tym coraz częściej myślę. Ta lalka jest zmontowana z części. Zestaw dostałam z Minidolllist.
Co do zmiany stroju to ma to na pewno swoje plusy, ale ja generalnie moich lalek nie przebieram więc mogą mieć po jednej kiecce.;D

Unknown said...

Obłędna jest ta suknia. Oczywiście lalka również! Niby szkoda, że tylko jedno pasemko udało Ci się zrobić, ale z drugiej strony właśnie teraz wygląda niezwykle oryginalnie. Podziwiam :)

Kaya said...

The Old Maid, tak, przychylam się do Twojej wersji sukienki. :) Jedna lalka i jedna kiecka dla niej, bo jest wyjątkowa. Nie mogę się już doczekać następnego Twojego projektu.

The Old Maid said...

Dziękuję serdecznie Maja!:) Bardzo się ciesze, że Ci się pasemko podoba.:)
Uściski

The Old Maid said...

A ja Twojego Kaya!:D
Jeszcze raz wielkie dzięki!

Gill Bayes Miniatures said...

Wow! She's gorgeous. You'd made a fabulous job of the dress! I think a bit of sewing, a bit of gluing works best. It isn't always possible to sew everything. She's very lucky to be wearing real pearls! I love her! Gill x

The Old Maid said...

Thank you so much Gill! Happy you like her!!
Funny thing with pearls, in my country they mean tears in future life, when worn with wedding dress.;)

PAKY said...

Wow!! Is a wonderful dress! I love it!! Is a great work, congrats!!! Hugs

The Old Maid said...

Thank you so much Paky! Happy you like it!:)
Hugs

Ola said...

Przepiękna suknia! Gratuluję pomysłu :)

The Old Maid said...

Bardzo dziękuję Olu! Cieszę się, że Ci się podoba!:)
Masz może swojego bloga? Bo nie mogę go znaleźć.:(

Unknown said...

Koronka rzeczywiście rewelacja. Suknia cudo! Czy welon będzie udrapowany na głowie, czy zostanie w rękach lalki?

The Old Maid said...

:D Zostaje w rękach lalki.;) Może następna będzie miała welon na głowie.:) Dziękuję bardzo Magdaleno i cieszę się, że się suknia podoba!
