So, last night I felt adventrous and decied that my custom mini Felicity, whose name is currently un-decied but might possibly be Erin, needed some eye re-vamp. I mean, I'd already snipped her hair quite a bit, brushed it out, washed it, tried to color it (note to self a readers: bad idea) and given her eyeliner-freckles... but she still looked a like a twin to my 'real' mini Felicity, who is a 25th aniversy mini and belongs to Emily.
So I went crazy. I still undecied on the eye, too. Brown or Blue? hmmm ;)
Anyway, here are some photos I snapped of her this morning in the lovely window light. :)
I sewed the petticoat/nightgown thingy for Mini Felicity, to wear under her holiday gown so she doesn't get cold, and to finally have something sleep in, besides her holiday gown and meet dress that she stole from now custom no-name-Lizzie.
Her blue eye isn't *that* bright, but it's close enough. I'll probably go over it again tonight.
A loooong time ago, I planned on giving this girlie (at the time, her name was set-in-stone as Erin) a blog of her own about travel and life situations, but I won't be doing that anymore. Nope nope nope! I'm going to start taking this girl wherever I go travel wise, since taking a big doll isn't always convenient.
{{P.S. what do you think of the name Aurora? :D }}

Weekly Photo Dump: Sewing Sew Much
Posted by
welcome to hell
Hello! It's a day late, sorry about that, I forgot, and Picasa was malfunctioning last night...But here it is!
I made my first circle skirt! I love it so much, it's adorable, and you just might see in in my Etsy shop in the coming month... ;) The image to the right is another creation that will find a home at Etsy soon, but I'm not going to post any more of it, it's a surprise...
I also tried leggings, but had to adapt from one of those generic patterns you buy at fabric stores. (I'm to cheap to buy the real pattern from Pixie Faire XP) In the end though, they turned out nothing like the pattern. I will be keeping this pair for myself, just because they're so messy ( and kind of baggy in the back) but hopefully will be making another pair to sell.
I also tried to make a tutorial on how to turn a hoodie sleeve into scrunchy doll pants, but I forgot to take the rest of the pictures, so I only have this one and one other... won't be posting that now. XD
But, until next time,
{{P.S. do you like my new design? I'm still experimenting {and learning} so its not quite done yet, but for now, it's done. XD }}

Molly has missed out on all the designing fun these weeks, but it doesn't look like she minds to much ;)
Emily has been my dolly manikin for this sewing adventure, I'm not quite sure why but it's been an interesting 'bonding' experience, as I never do much with Emmy. But, until next time,

Name Change: Yes or No?

welcome to hell
I realized that today I've only gotten 3 page view n my blog. I'm not trying to be conceited or all like NOOOO ONE LIKES ME I just thought that it was odd, because I get at least 10 a day... and then I remembered I changed the name of my blog.
I never truly like the name American Girl Imagination. One of my biggest troubles in life (XD) is naming things, which falls right in like in making a dessicion. I really wanted to get my blog going, so I finally picked something I could go with for some time and went live. But then I came of with Vinyl Girls, which is an obvius play on words with dolls and the fact that they're vinyl... and all of mine, anyway, are girls.
But American Girl Imagination does kinda give more of a clue in on the fact that this is a DOLL BLOG about DOLLS and other DOLLY THINGS.
So, yes or no? Do you like it or not? You can vote in the poll that is to the right of this post, and if you have a further comment or suggestion, you can comment below. I read all my comments. :)
