To Skirt Pattern |

Cut poodle from contrasting fabric. Use glue or wonder
under to attach to skirt. Fill shaded areas on pattern with raveled
bunka. If desired, glue flat back rhinestones across neck to make
collar, |

Cut a second skirt piece from white batiste. Trim
off 1" from the outer edge. Gather three rows of 1" wide
organze ribbon to fabric. Place first row around outer edge, and
move each subsequent row up 1/4" |

Gather crinoline to doll, slightly below the
waist.
Gather Poodle skirt around doll's waist. If necessary, make
a small cut down center back to get skirt over doll's head, then stitch
opening closed with tiny hand stitches. |

I made Dorothy's sweater from a piece of an old angora
sweater. Any small soft knit will do. Keep the sweater a
simple one piece garment, pulling over head, and hand whipping side
seams.
Embroidery thread was stiffened and formed to shape the monogram,
then glued to sweater.
Scarf is made from a small strip of chiffon.
Belt is a piece of wide middy braid, threaded thru a small doll
buckle. |

Hair was styled in a pony tail with bangs. Pony
tail was then dampened and curled around a thin knitting needle and
allowed to dry. Pink ribbon was added.
Skirt was dampened with hairspray, and gently gathered
and held with a rubberband until dry so that skirt would hang properly.
