I just got the 2 dresses i ordered from Fran.
Those of you who haven't experienced a JazzyFran dress are missing out on a great thing.
You all know I have sewn for a million years and even ventured into the couture side of sewing....
JazzyFran's dresses are truly haute couture for teddies and gollies.....actually they are too good for the gollies, but they are beautifully made, beautifully created, and she doesn't take short cuts, like some of us do..... :redface: :redface: :redface:

I really encourage you to at least get one dress, just to have something so special for a special bear-
she even underlines her silk doupioni like we would if we were making a people dress! The dresses are so lovely, the lace to-die-for, and construction, well, its perfect.
AND we really are stealing these dresses! They should go for so much more!
JazzyFrannie are you listening?????
she has a passel of dresses posted over on e-bay....the link above us just for one of the dresses.....
You wont be sorry, if you are into dressing your bears or dollys - The dresses are sublime....

I don't have one yet, but I will! They really are beautiful.
Fran's dresses really are just gorgeous! I'm sure she puts a ton of time into each one. I used to sew prom dresses and such, so know how difficult some of the fabrics can be to work with. I so admire your talent (and patience ), Fran!
I wonder if Fran takes commissions for her dresses? My mom has been after me for forever to make a couple of dresses for two nekked composition dolls ......and maybe one porcelain one, too.........that she has, and I am just avoiding it like the plague! That would take too much of my time away from making bears....and I have a serious addiction to mohair.....like if I don't work with it at least a little every day I have withdrawal. There should be a mohair anonymous chapter for those of us needing help! Really though, I think Mom would just love Fran's dresses. Hmm.....a gift idea.....

I have a dress from Fran too, it's beautiful!! Have you seen the beautiful hat she has on ebay too, Fran I can feel an order coming on..... :hug:
I got a hat with a beautiful feather and matching jacket a couple of months ago and am just waiting for the time to make a big enough bear to wear them. They are truly beautiful and intricate - well worth the funds (which weren't that much).
:clap:
