BeGoth bookends to your collection, from the first and the last of the series! What an interesting coincidence!
I'm guessing you have since filled in some of the in-betweens!
Your Gloria is glorious!

I like the theatre tattoo on her chest, and her look overall

It was an odd coincidence, and yes, I have managed to get others from the other series, as will be shown over time, lol. Thank you!

I think she's cool, too. And thank you!

It's a really cool tattoo design, even if it doesn't seem to fit with her otherwise 20's inspired look... Thank you!

123. Sewing: Trousers for a Hujoo Nano
Well, now Rabbie has a pair of trousers to wear! I just used a plain colour fabric here because pattern matching is enough of a pest at a normal scale. It would be a disaster for this size. This was actually the second attempt as my first attempt was a bit too narrow on him - they fit, but they were tight and I couldn't really bend or pose his legs. This pair work fair better. I estimated a pattern size and roughed it out. Debating on whether to make a new top for him - I kind of like the look of that one on him. Hm. Will think on it.
(He's standing in front of my sewing box there, for anyone curious. I really should go through it and clear out some of the scrappy ends of fabric.)

That's one rad cutie right there! The combination of cute little purple bunny with somewhat hip-hop-ish outfit works surprisingly well!

I'm sure he'll want more clothes now that he realizes he's landed with someone who can sew for him

Hip-hop-ish outfit! That's funny!
And appropriate!

Oh, thank you! I think I'd like to try to make him a little bandanna type thing, to wrap around his head. Not quite sure on that yet.

He'll need to wait till I get some more fabric that works for his scale - most of my stuff is for 1:6 and up scales.

Trust you to point out the pun
(It's a good pun.)

124. Theatre Trip: Cats
Last night I went to the theatre to see a production of Cats that was being put on by a local production company. It was pretty brilliant, tbh. I'd never seen it live before, so it was a real treat.
Victoria really enjoyed it as well. She's wondering if she can go to the Jellice Ball next year.

Your dollies are so cultured, accompanying you to the theatre!
Sounds like a fun time!

Cute! She's ready to dance too.
I've never seen it 'live' either.

Oh, we all enjoy a good show now and then. It really was a fun night out!

She was very excited about it all, and wanted to copy everything she'd seen. If you ever get the chance to see it performed live, I would say take it. It's a fun show to watch.

Victoria is delighted by that thought!

It was so much fun. Definitely a show I'd like to see again.

125. Olivia O'Lantern
From series 7. Olivia is the only one I've actually bought twice, and been lucky enough to be able to do so. See, I had family come to visit and one of my little cousins fell in love with Olivia. Considering that she's adorable, it's not hard to do. I am not a (very) selfish person, I couldn't bare to see my little cousin have to be parted from the doll she'd not let go of since she first laid eyes on her. One quick nosy on Amazon later, little cousin went away with Olivia, and I had this new one on route to me. And yes, the new one was originally for the little cousin, but she was going home before it would arrive, so we went with her taking the one in hand away with her. She was very happy.

That’s a lovely story about the 2 Olivia’s. You are very kind cousin to give her your doll. (She’s gorgeous, I’m not surprised your cousin wanted her too).
I’m trying to remember if I’ve seen Cats live - I remember a lot of the songs, but the visuals are “too close” to be from the seats I could have afforded at the time, so I think not.
She certainly looks like she’s going to autidion for the next production though.
