Apartment #4 - Amanda Grace's Sewing Aptmt - Meet Amanda Grace!

HELLO EVERYONE!!!

THIS NEXT APARTMENT HAS SO MANY
PICS THAT I MUST BREAK IT UP INTO SEVERAL
POSTINGS!

I have been working on "MAKEOVERS" for all of the
apartments that are in 'LOUISIANA'. So bear with
me.
This apartment that I am going to show you has taken
me so long to redo.
And there have been so many changes to this apartment
in the past 2 years that I have been
working on it.


MEET AMANDA GRACE!

Amanda works all day, 5 days a week at a 
fabric store. Yet, from Friday to
late Sunday nights she sews for other people to help
supplement her income.
Housing is so expensive
these days and Amanda does not want to move because
she likes living in this old building.
She is going to
stay here as long as she can here in
'LOUISIANA'.
Amanda Grace is a Dawn doll.
I love how these
dolls twist and bend.
Her bobbed hair seems fitting to her.
Amanda Grace is a busy woman.
 
 Today this is what Amanda Grace is wearing.
She is at home this Saturday evening doing what
she does best - sewing!!
Her chatelaine
stays around her neck all day long and she
has even been known to go to sleep with
it still around her neck!
That is dangerous Amanda Grace!
Her little outfit came from
Wal-mart. It was a Braatz
outfit, I think. I cannot
remember because it has
been so long ago that I
bought it.
 
 Here is the back of the little
outfit.
I love the hood on
the shirt.
She is barefooted
today around the house.
Gee, I hope she has picked
up all her pins off the floor!
She has 2 ladies coming over later
this evening.
She has made wedding dresses
for them and they must try them on.

 Here is a close-up of the chatelaine.
This is simple to make.
Just take a little piece of
ribbon and thread one side thru the scissors.
Glue it down to the back.
Take the other side
of the ribbon and just add a piece of 'something'
over the top and glue to the back.
The needle is a real needle that I clipped off.
It is glued into the little red piece of fabric.
Thank you for visiting Amanda Grace!
She enjoyed meeting you.
