Happy Halloween!! 🍂🎃🍁
Gus is feeling cozy this morning, and ready to face those cooler daytime temps! ☕️🐏🍁🍂
Summer is back, and it feels like the tropics! 😆🌴🌿🦎
Gus got so comfy with his book, I think he’s about to read himself into a cat nap. 😆😴📚
Accessories: they’re not what we are. They’re what we wear. 😎✊
This is the final photo in the series, from my visit to the Shelburne Museum with @dollsonthebrain and @play_house_with_peter. Thank you so much, guys, for bringing me, and Gus, and Lucian, on this wonderful photography adventure!! You both are awesome gentlemen! It was such a blast to meet you!! 🛼🏛🚢🚂🚜🌾
Tucked away, under the gangway for the Ticonderoga, I spotted some old nautical rope, and had to snap a couple more pictures of Gus, posing with it. 😆🚢⚓️🪢
Shoutout to @dollsonthebrain and @play_house_with_peter for putting up with me scampering off down there. 😂
Ahoy there! Gus has his bucket hat on to shield him from the sun, and is ready for a tour of the steam-powered lake boat: Ticonderoga! 🚢⚓️🐟
Here is Gus, back on terra firma at The Shelburne Museum, and, I think, looking rather pleased with his tree climbing exploits. 😆
Lucian admires the books and furnishings from American polo champion, James Watson Webb II’s deco-era study!
Arboreal Gus! Gus found a beautiful old apple tree on the museum grounds, and decided to climb it. 😄🧗♂️🌳🍎
Lucian, here, dressed in white cotton to beat the tropical heat, is checking out steam locomotive No. 220, at the Shelburne Museum. 🚂☀️🌴
It’s Barbenheimer week! In a nod to everybody heading to the theater to see both films (and extra points if it’s a double feature!), Gus, Lucian, and Bryce have turned out in #barbenheimer inspired looks, for @scarlarydoll’s Pink Carpet party.
Hurray! We just had the first sunny morning in what feels like a week! ☀️Happy Independence Day to all my friends and followers stateside! 🎆🍰🫐🍓🇺🇸
Bryce is out
running some last minute errands before the weekend, in a comfy pair of
khaki overalls, and an oversized graphic T. 😎
I’m happy to
report that the Tiny Apparel overalls pattern (0017) fits Ken dolls with
the new, more muscular build! Bryce’s shirt, here, was made with
pattern 0021 🧵🪡📍
Gus saunters
off, showing us the back of his majolica tile print cabana set. I used
different sections of a multi-print fabric, for each of the sleeve,
back, yoke, and collar pieces, to get a kaleidoscopic effect! 🌀The
finished look totally exceeded my expectations! I think this is a really
fun way to combine prints! 😃
🌴☀️🌊🛟
Happy First
Day of June! 😀 Where I live, it’s also the first scorcher of the
season, over 90°F, with humid hazy conditions.😅 To stay comfortable,
Gus is wearing a matching cotton resort shirt (pattern 0019) and bucket
hat (pattern 0004).
🏝☀️🌺
I hope you all are having an awesome weekend! ☀️ Today, Lucian’s paired a suit jacket (pattern 0012) with wide-leg pants (pattern 0026) to create a comfy casual slouchy suit. 😎👔
The long and the short of it: 30mph north winds? 70 degree sunshine? Whatever the weather, Gus is prepared. 😄⛅️

News from the
studio: It was not an easy decision, but I am officially closing the
bespoke side of Tiny Apparel. I started making bespoke miniature
menswear in 2019, but now my life has become much more busy. To minimize
stress, I need to streamline the Tiny Apparel business to one main
focus instead of juggling two. I look forward to continuing to expand
the TA sewing pattern collection with new designs, and I will, of
course, continue to share photos of what I create, here on IG. 📸😊
It’s
been an amazing 4 years, of taking people’s miniature design ideas from
concept to reality. Everything from a full 1:6 scale army dress
uniform, to a tweed blazer for plush baby Yoda. A great big Thank You to
all my wonderful bespoke clients, for your amazing support,
encouragement, and generosity over the years. I am so grateful to have
met all of you. 💙
P.S. If you need any assistance finding
someone to sew a particular custom item, I am happy to help network
within the doll community, to find someone who may be able to complete
your order. 😊🔎
Best wishes!
Happy #mermay! Merman Bryce is chilling in the sand dunes, letting the ocean breezes ruffle through his locks. 🌾🌊🧜♂️🐚
I’m happy to discover that the Tiny Apparel merman Tail (0011) sewing pattern fits the extra muscular MTM Ken dolls like Bryce!
Gus living life to the full, and loving it! 😎🌊🐠
The Tiny Apparel Patterns featured in this look are the Button-Up Shirt (0003) and Retro Style Swim Trunks (0020).
Here’s Big
Bryce, trying out some Tiny Apparel sewing patterns, to show how they
look on the new muscular MTM build from Mattel. His outfit was made
with:
🧵Jogger Sweat Pants (0014)
🧵Oversized T-shirt (0021)
(Both are available at the link in my bio).
I’m
pleased to report that the joggers and T fit Bryce with zero
alterations. I decorated his shirt with a beaded bee patch, from @moodfabrics. 😄🐝
Stepping into the spring weather.☀️ Gus has cuffed the hems of his wide-leg pants, for a slouchy, retro, preppy look. 📚📖🏺
Sewing patterns for his pants and shirt can be found at the link in my bio.

Welcome, Big Bryce, to the Tiny Apparel crew! 🎉
Gus
and Lucian met big Bryce, over at the gym, and they all hit it off
immediately. At brunch, today, the cousins pitched bringing Bryce on
board for an exciting new Tiny Apparel project: discovering which sewing
pattern designs are best suited for big boys like Bryce!
Bryce
enthusiastically signed on to help. He’s brand-new to modeling, and a
little camera shy, but eager to try new things. We are all thrilled to
have him on the team!
Welcome, Bryce! 🤝🎉
Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend, and a very Happy Easter to all who are celebrating! 🐇🪺🌷☀️
Gus’ cousin, Lucian, has landed on the cover of a magazine, for the first time! This is a very big deal in any fashion model’s career, but he’s trying to keep his cool about it. 😎Congratulations Lucian, on being selected as a cover boy! And, a huge thank you to @lilybearcreates, for featuring both Gus, and Lucian, in the April edition of New Doll Times Magazine; her printable, doll-sized publication! It is such an honor!
📖📚🪑🐚
Just feeling so appreciative, for the amazing people and true friends I have met on this app, and in random corners of the internet; words can’t even begin to express it all. You are awesome! 😎
Gus has been
working hard, training Sinatra to be a triple threat! That’s right, the
beagle can sing, he can act, and now he can dance! 😆 Here, Sinatra is
doing a leg weave; a classic move in Canine Musical Freestyle
competitions.
Inspired by the #monday4dolls theme: DANCE!
Gus takes a stroll, in an ensemble inspired by the recent, super cozy, @zegnaofficial winter collections. The sewing patterns for Gus’ bulky sweater and wide leg pants, are available at the link in my bio. Swipe to check out the #ermengildozegna inspo. 😀
