Fall Fashion Jump Start

With the fall coming up, I decided to get a head start on some wardrobe pieces for the fall season when cooler weather sets in.  The fall is my favorite season by far. I love the clothes that go with it, the temperature change, and the rich colors of the season.

All of the pieces for this outfit were created from Liberty Jane patterns (minus the shoes and necklace).  With a few alterations here and there. I made a few sewing hiccups but now i know what to look out for in the future such as making sure the jean vest panels are going the right direction!

When sewing it is always a good idea to double check things before you officially sew it together. 

I have had numerous occasions where I had to pull out the seam ripper and pull apart something I

 just did.  -_-

 The shirt Addy is wearing was up-cyled from an old, gently used, plain, white tank top. After sewing it together i added iron-on gem stones for a final touch.

Although the vest was left open for these pictures, it does have functioning buttons that do hook closed.

I love, love, love the jean patterns from Liberty Jane.  Tiny working pockets were even included in the pattern.  The pattern does not include a working fly but is held on the doll with a elastic waistband.  All you have to do is stretch the band and scooch it up over the doll's bottom. 

The fabric of the pants came from an up-cycled jacket.

Note: The shirt, vest and pants were made from or based off of Liberty Jane patterns.  The shoes are from American Girl Julie's Calico dress. The necklace was made by me from my own design.
