As always it seems I have waited until the last moment to finish my swap project, but the deadline was for the 31st so I am still right on time.
Here is my finished outfit which includes two tops, one bottom, and a book bag with book:
And now for some modeling:
I will be sending this out tomorrow. I think I have gotten into the groove of sewing for these little ones though and I hope that will encourage me to sew my kids some more clothes. It's nice when you only have a small piece of fabric and a short time to sew with. Even simple designs look nice on them and you don't have to embellish much.

Jensen is Home (an earlier than expected reunion)
I was on DOA forums last week reading through the general forums in a thread about buying dolls and having second thoughts while waiting for them in the mail or after you received them, when I ran into someone talking about their Luts Terra that they just couldn't seem to get to work for them. I was like heeeeyyyy, I wonder if it's still up for sale and how much they want for it. It turns out he had been reduced to $330 and was purchased earlier this year from Luts. On Luts's website I was going to pay $513.75 to buy him new, that's $183.75 savings! So I bought him from the seller through ebay and here he is! I didn't expect to be able to buy him until this fall so it is an awesome turn of events.
He arrived in his original boxes (inner and outer shipping box), and so well packaged I didn't even feel like he was second hand at all! The seller was sweet and sent some extra items along with him too, which was nice. His wig is on it's way from Leekeworld, but until then he in wearing the color that he had when he was still a Luts Bory so it's fitting anyway.
Here is the default makeup he was sent with, which was in perfect condition but not to my personal taste.
So it went bye bye, and now he looks like this:
Friendly and flirty.
He has such a huge fat head that he looks ridiculous next too his brother Alex (who has a very small head). But that doesn't really bother me since they have never really looked like brothers to begin with.
He is also wearing the blue eyes here, but I decide I liked the darker green ones better. His character is supposed to have blue eyes but, meh he's mine so I can do what I want right?
Here he is with the other two resident "fat heads" as I call them. You can see the scale is a little better with these two. He is so short he doesn't have any pants that fit so I need to do some sewing. He is currently wearing a pair of shorts I made for Suri...luckily you can't tell that they are girls.
He is a 15 year old hipster/skateboarder so his clothes will be pretty casual, lots of hoodies/tees and jeans.
Before I do any sewing though I need to clean and organize...I've been pretty lazy lately so I need to get to it.
