Here we go, these are dresses I have made for 18 inch dolls (American Girl dolls), using the info. from the costume section on NarniaWeb. The first on is Susan's archery dress from LWW:

Oh, my goodness, those are absolutely... breathtaking, beatuful, speechless-rendering, the whole 'awesomely amazing' package!!! Oh, goodness, the details, the thoughtfulness, the precision! Amazing, just amazing!

Honestly, I don't even know how to comment on those! They're just beautiful, you should be proud! The tiny bow and horn are great! I think my favorite is the LWW dress, but I love the back of the PC battle outfit! Such neat work!

*looks down and shuffles feet* Awe, Beginte, I don't know what to say to that! Besides 'thanks', but a million thank-you's won't cover my gratitude for that woderfully sweet comment!

The horn is made from paper? You did a great job on painting it, it really does look like it's etched.

And that is a neat fabric you used for the chain maille. Do you know what it is? It works really well at that scale.

Fantastic outfits!

[DaughterofEve1792]

Thanks Meltinalle!
For the chain mail I used rubber shelf/drawer lining. It's got a grippy feel to it, so things don't slide around on the shelf or in a drawer. I found it at Wal-Mart.

wow! great job! awesome!

[DaughterofEve1792]

Thanks Liberty!

That's awesome! You are a very talented person

WOW!!!!! Those are gorgeous!!! You did a fantabulous job!!! Absolutely beautiful, thought-out, well designed, awesome dresses! Their so lovely! I really like the LWW dress. Such detail! The horn is just great! It looks like it's carved from wood. I love the border around the cloak. It's really pretty. The puffed white under the green in the sleeves is nice, just like the movie! And the belt is good too. I really like how you included the straps and everything for her horn, bow, and quiver.

The battle dress is nice as well! My favorite part though would have to be how you did her hair! It looks exactly how it is in the movie! I like the red material, and the 'chain-mail' is good too. Her bow is great as well.

These are awesome! You did a great job!!

[DaughterofEve1792]

Thank you Narnialover4! You are kind!
Lover of Narnia: Thanks! Yes, I tried to make them as close to the originals as possible. I tried to find something more floral looking for the cloak trim, but this was all I could find. (I live a pretty good distance from the city, so I don't get to go to the bigger fabric stores like Hobby Lobby very often. I mainly stuck to Wal-mart ) The bow is just a luckily shaped stick I just happened to find and paint. I use a pattern from Simplicity for the dresses. It's Simplicity pattern 2768 if you're interested.
I am currently working on Lucy's blue dress from LWW, so, be on the lookout!
If anyone wants to make their own, feel free to post or message questions to me!!

Oh okay when I first came here I thought there was an actual new doll coming out of Susan. I nearly jumped out of my skin because I was thinking there would possibly be more dolls of different characters

Anyways

Wow! I've never seen anyone on here take on something that looks so real off the screen. That is Susan's dress! Either you shrunk it or you are just that good. You are just that good! You're more then good it's sensational! I love the details and texture on the cloak from LWW it looks like the real thing. The horn doesn't look like cardboard it looks really real.

Awe, haha I love the Susan dolls hair for PC, you got the style right and I love the red part of her dress.

I love it

Great job

[DaughterofEve1792]

Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you Jill!
I have sense learned more about the Battle dress and will remake it here shortly. I am in the middle of remaking the Archery dress because I didn't use the correct fabric on the one showed here. So, this one I was planning on selling in a garage sale, but, I have concluded that a NarniaWebber would take much better care of it. If you are interested in owning the Archery Dress featured here, post, or message me! (I would only include the dress, the belt, the shoes (green silk ones to match the dress) and the green hair ribbon.
