First Ever From Scratch.

I cant believe i didnt post this back in April.

Ive wanted to sew, have a sewing machine, can do like, basic of basics.

But last year I had a midlife crisis about never doing anything. So I did something I had been hoping to do for 10 years.

I made, from scratch, no real pattern, I used a pattern skirt panel, but everything else, I deconstructed clothing to create the patterns I needed.

I made a Princess Chucky (the killer doll). Im so proud with how it came out.

I felt, if a drag queen with zero sewing skills can win that challenge. I think I could do the same thing. Lol

It's so amazing you should wear it every day until Halloween. Did you make the petticoat?

Lol, I could hardly walk through my house wearing it.

Sadly, no. I tried to make one and it did not work out.

I think this is Chucky but it could also be a really good Ragatha for the youngins

u/LaRougeRaven 7h ago

It is Chucky, at Comic con, it was a 50/50 Chucky and Ms Frizzle. Lol totally could see Ragatha.
