As you may have noticed I added a few things that I haven't posted about. I finished the tie and after sewing all of those ribbons to the fabric my hand is happy for the break.
I even made some hair ribbons using the left over ribbon and some stiching adhesive I had already. I didn't have any shoes that really fit, but when these are the shoes from an American Girl Today outfit from I suppose 12 or 13 years ago. It was called the Urban Outfit. The socks are also from this outfit.
I took off the robe so you could see the whole outfit. The pleated skirt, sweater, tie, shirt
And you may have noticed her wand. To be honest I thought about making one, but then my mom suggested I just go outside and see what I can find. Well I found the perfect stick. The stick even had a small knot at the end for the handle. It was originally taller than her, but I cut the stick down and sanded the end to make it rounded with a slight point. I made it to look to be about her size. I like how real it looks.
And you can't see in my pictures above, but I made a even made a wand pocket inside of her robe. I took some of the left over black lining and folded it in half. I sewed three sides and turned it inside out. And then I sewed it inside on one of the sides. It took a bit more time than I thought it would, but now I have somewhere to store the wand when it's not in use.
