Lelahel's diary

that's all i made those days ! I don't sew so much, that's bad -_- I tried to do a face up for my doll Mielikki, but i wasn't satisfied at all. I tried to find a job too, but nothing is new about that -_- I think i don't have enough determination actually. I don't feel very motivated. But i know i have to find a way to do much more things. I went to a doll meeting this weekend, and i spoke to some friends too. I was glad that happened, so i feel it's the good time to start again to try, try more, always try. ^^
Just two pictures of the two skirts i made. One is black and very simple. The other is white and blue, but i finished it this afternoon, and i couldn't take any other good picture. But soon i will show you this one in a better way ^^

Who's Mielikki ? My new doll head ^^ She is a mini fee dark elf soo ! I bought here two weeks ago and i was surprised she was already there on this morning ! She is so cute, i am really happy i had the oppotunity to buy her ! I did a first face up on this afternoon but i erased it one hour after ^^ I will do a better one soon. I think i was too excited to have her at home and i made this first face up too quickly. here is a picture of her ^^ :

I want to find a pink wig and some amber eyes. The character of Mielikki died when she was 9. I have written the story of her death but i have to translate it in english ^^
But i started to sew a skirt from yesterday, in "human size". So i have to finish it first ! ^^

on ebay !! Just one of each for this halloween limited editions ^^ Please take a look and if you like them, make a bid ! click on the picture ^^

...bags ! Yes yes, i wanted to make some "halloween special edition" of my bags, and so i did ! I made 3 rabbits those last days, and 2 cats ! Suddenly, looking at this pictures, it seems that those cats look like bats, don't they..?

But i like them anyway !! I don't think i will make more for now : i will probably put them tomorrow on ebay, and if i see it could be a "success", so i will sew some more.
I have tried to find another shape of bag, but still with my "style" (so the one eye rabbit and the bat cat lol) and i made those two proptotypes today :

So...? What you think ?
...
Well ok, it's more a "a truck got over one eye bunny and bat kitty" but hum... ok i think i have to improve this new idea !

I made only 4 new outfits for SD girl, this last week, but i already put them on sale. So i made an update on my "for dolls" website ^^ Please take a look there :

I have decided to make bags now, so no dolls outfit this week ! I will add picture of them as soon as i got some to put on ebay ^^
Here it start to be really cold, even in my room... It's unbelievable, it's just mid september, and on this morning, the temperature was only 6°C. My fingers get gold very quickly when i sew ^^ But i drink a lot of hot milk tea, so it's kind of nice time ^^

I realized i haven't worked enough. I wanted to do 3 outfits this week end, and i did 2 and an half (the last one is not finished). Tonight i have to preparer paper to go to look for a job tomorrow morning, so i won't be able to sew again before tomorrow night >< But i am satisfied with the last outfit i made (i put you a picture). I really enjoyed this first week end just making clothes.

Oh and i did something bad on saturday...i bought a new doll head >< Oh but she is just so cute, i was thinking about her so much those last days. Finally i've been weak and i bought her. I already found her a name, i know what kind of character i want to do with her ! As soon as i got her, i will post pictures there. But she will be a totally "naked" head in the beginning : no make up, no hair, no eyes ^^ But so cute...

Oh i forgot how difficult it is to find a good fabric. A good fabric is good quality, nice pattern, and reasonnable price. It sounds like an impossible thing to find. I've been to all the shop of fabrics there is in my town, and for some seconds, i was like panick stricken ! Nothing, just nothin, any fabric. So finally i took some very simple cotton plain ones. Well maybe later i will find something more exciting lool Or if i can have money enough, i could go to paris. Yes, especially to buy fabrics ^^ But well, i will see. Anyway i was so happy to use my sewing machine today !! ^^ I just did a skirt for sd doll, what you think about it ? I will finish the outfit tomorrow...

Yes today there have been thunderstorms here. I was quite happy, i really enjoy thunderstorms : it makes me joyful (can i say this word in english ?) and give me motivation. Yes yes ^^ After all this rain, the sky tonight is so beautiful. I'm always so impressed by the beauty of the sky. Oh i know, what i'm saying could seem really silly but i don't care... See, i took a picture from my window :

But i haven't just contemplated the thunders this afternoon. I made a bag ! Oh it was just a "test", to check my abilities with my sewing machine ^^ But i think this one is cute and i will probably make some "special halloween" bags from now ! What you think about it ?

My final essay is over, i did it !! I'm so proud of me lool I really thought i would have bigger problem of time, but finally it's ready 2 days before the final date ! Did i do my best ? Honestly no. Because it really bothered me a lot. So i did my best, being fast ! And i don't have regrets for now ^^ Oh by the way, the title of this essay is "little doll with slit eyes". ^^ If i feel motivated, i will make a sump up in english to post it here !
So today was a good day. I did a photoshoot with my dolls too, cause lelahel recieved a new wig this morning. She is so cute : here are 3 pictures of her...



Tomorrow i will have to print and send my essay, to settle some things and then...I will go to buy fabrics !! Finally, i will sew again !!

is still so creative. I like your work, i like your personnality, Jean Paul. And i like this new advertisment for one of your perfume !!



And if you're curious and you don't really know Jean Paul Gaultier's work, here is the officiel website !

Yes, i hope i will be able to give my master's degree's final essay right on time >< I worked on it all this week but i have real problems to make my mind concentrated. Well i did the borest part of it, it means the first one ^^' I began the second one yesterday and i think it will be easier now. Oh did i tell you my essay is about dolls ? Maybe not. Well so it's about dolls in Japan. So of course the traditionnals ones : Japan has a very impressive variety of old dolls. THen my second part is about "modern" dolls, including asian ball jointed dolls and robots. Oh yes, you understand now why it will be easier than the first part to write ! And the third will be about girl dolls, like gothic lolita...or almost all of the japanese girls you can meet on the street. So sophisticated, so perfect...like dolls.
Well i have to give this essay back in one week, so hurry Lela !!
But i still have a little bit of time to take care of my dolls, and my favourite one, my dear Lelahel, isn't she beautiful ?

Have a good sunday everybody !

is a good opportunity to take some pictures of my lovely Lelahel. We've been to the antic theatre and that was just a perfect afternoon !! I was so happy to be back in this town i like so much, with my friends. I want to move soon to Lyon !! But for now, here are some pictures of my doll ^^
