Entry #28

Intermediate

I designed this meet outfit for a doll that is a science fiction nerd, in particular a Doctor Who fan. I started by making a T-shirt of with my favorite Doctor Who quote and a matching skirt. I cut up an old T-shirt and used the Liberty Jane T-shirt pattern and an iron-on transfer for the T-shirt. For the skirt I used the Liberty Jane harakuju  skirt pattern and some quilting cotton.

The outfit needed some color, so I made a modernized version of Addy's school jacket with three quarter length sleeves. it is lined in blue, which ties it in to the rest of the outfit.

Her bag actually had two versions. First I made a yellow backpack with a Tardis iron-on transfer. Then, however, I altered the lunch bag pattern from Wren Feathers to make a book bag out of yellow and blue Tardis Fabric. This bag just popped more with her outfit, so I decided to use it instead of the backpack.

I made a red velvet beret from one of Molly's patterns. This matched the jacket well, and served as a cute tribute to the Doctor's fez.

Her underwear also came from one of Molly's patterns. I cut up a T-shirt from the library's summer reading program to use the rocket pictured on the T-shirt.

I also made a lunch box for her. I painted a Hello Kitty ornament blue, then decoupaged pictures from Doctor Who on to it. 

I made a doll sized version of River Song's diary.

Her boots are from an old AG outfit- they are sturdy and practical for running with the Doctor. Her sonic screwdriver is from a Doctor Who keychain. They are the only parts of the meet outfit I did not make. 

This doll is ready for any time travel challenges that may come her way!
