HAND SEWN EYELETS ~Bethann Scott ~ The Stitch Fiddler

For my next doll I designed what I call a Tinker Bell style bodice that laces up the front. I seldom like adding grommets even though I have the power riveter and hole punch tools. I'd rather hand sew the eyelets using the buttonhole stitch.

Such beautiful work! I know how tedious the hand sewn eyelets are--we used them for SCA garb. Can't wait to see the doll this goes on!

Beautiful stitching Bethann! I spent a lot of time earlier this winter practicing these very stitches. I can't wait to see the lucky doll that gets to wear this beautiful bodice!
