Cute skirts :)  I like the fabric you used on the last dress

I was frustrated by insufficient klicky beds as a child.


Massive shortage! I sewed tiny pillows too

Thanks for the encouragement. And ehat about sleeves, do you sew them?

I think I've only done sleeves for humans.  :lol:

Birdie, yes, tiny pillows! I had one made from lace and faux silk.

Lol, of course! I meant to ask how hard they were to make. I know that a lot of people hate sewing them, and for good reason!

Sleeves for humans aren't too terrible, if you have a good pattern. But klickies don't have the arm movement to make sleeves easy to get on, and they'd have to be super tiny.

So . . . I tried sewing a dress. It did not go well. Klicky heads are huge, but I don't really want to pull their heads off to change their clothes.  :lol: Maybe we need to look to the Sylvanian clothes for inspiration. Or I should stick to pillows and blankets.

I gave it another try, with kimonos. These are cut as a single piece of fabric to avoid excessive seam bulk.
