Well, anyway I think it's time to make a doll for myself....
Making a Hello Kitty doll manual - step by step.
First, need a templete, of bigger size than the others. =)
I want to put different clothes on this Kitty, so I remake her body, and putting flowers instead of her usual bow.
Cut out Kitty from the white fabric sheet. Fold the fabric so you get two sheets, front and back.
Sew her eyes on the front sheet. And the yellow nose.
And then whiskers.
Put the back sheet together with the front one.
Use white yarn for Kitty's body.
Start at one feet and stop when you've come to the other feet.
Time for stuffing Kitty (you can reuse the stuff from an old pillow if you don't have cotton stuffing). Finish the sewing at the feet.
I want to make a kimono for her!
First attempt: FAIL! T_T
I mean, the sleeves...?? What the *beep*!
So I have to rewrite the clothes, make it bigger and longer.
Sewing an inner collar so it kind of looks like she has two kimonos at the same time.
Not too bad.
Decorate the obi a little bit.
Tie it nicely at the back.
The obi knot was a bit complicated, but I like its authenticity rather than an usual knot.

And now to the head accessories.
Attach the smaller one first.
And then the big pink one.
Tadaaa ~
The final result. ^_____________^
My sister borrowed a camera from our cousin's husband's job, and it takes really nice shoots, like this one. =)

And now to something else....
FOOD!
Papaya and some stuff I don't know the name of. Dessert.
Almond tofu (it was a bit TOO creamy, but nevermind it tasted wonderful) with strawberries and pine apple.
Raw grated papaya with dried beef. So yummy.
