Theresa's Newest Outfit - No. 2


Here are two views of Theresa in her newest outfit. It's the second one I made for her. Along with the background being different in the photos, Theresa also changed her shoes. The red shoes have red flowers, similar to the one on her blouse. They are just a wee bit smaller, size wise. 

Theresa has her hair in a pony tail which is tied up with a red ribbon, to match the flower on her blouse and the red shoes she's wearing in one of the above photos.

The multi printed fabric I used for the background is the same fabric I made her robe/duster/Spring Coat out of.

 The pants are plain and simple striped pants with an elastic waistband.

The boat necked white blouse has a row of lace going down the front of it with a red flower just below the neck band and in the top center of the lace on the blouse.  The sleeves end with a ruffled cuff that was created by using elastic for same.
 
The blouse has a zipper going down the center in the back of it. Instead of putting in a hidden zipper, I put in an exposed zipper, which is similar to the latest fad on dresses and the like, but, with a twist. I put in a matching zipper instead of a contrasting zipper.
 
Instead of the zipper opening at the bottom of the blouse like a jacket, I put a band around the bottom. Theresa can step into her blouse and pull it up instead of pulling it over her head and messing her hair up. She can put her slacks on, pulling them up, after putting her blouse on. She has the option of wearing the blouse tucked in or wearing it out, as shown in the photos.

Now, Theresa has two outfits she's modeled listed on eBay.

What Next?

Besides Theresa's sister, Winifred, who likes wearing her vintage dress, Theresa has 3 cousins coming shortly. Of course, they are going to want new outfits too. So, come back often and check out and see what their new duds will look like.

Winifred says that they have to stand in line, that she's waiting for her new outfit and that I should make hers first. After all, she let me make two for Theresa, so, she says that she's next in line for a new outfit.

The Boyle Clan:

Both Theresa and Winifred are members of the Boyle ClanPeggy, the author, is also part of same. Peggy is a granddaughter of Michael Leo Boyle who is found listed on ancestry.com. Peggy's grandmother's name was Winifred Theresa... Sound familiar?
