a little help from barbie.

So I've been really into handmade clothing lately. I follow two really talented clothing crafters who make cute and unique outfits & dresses mostly for kids. Their style is similar to mine - vintage, eco-friendly, with lots of bold colors and graphics. It's so fun to watch them come up with unique designs and how they market and sell their stuff. Since I've been so inspired by them lately, I decided to mess around with some fabric and make some outfits for barbie.

This was just a test run so it's a little rough around the edges and just some scrap fabric I had, but I'm excited to make use of all the different colors and patterns of fabric I have. Maybe some day I'll be making clothes and dresses for Syds and other little ones, but for now I'll stick to practicing on Barbie!
