I love the lil Jack!! By the way i don't mind me asking - what is puppet jersey and where do you find it? That s the most realistic skin I have seen in a long while!! Beautiful doll

DarkDollArt In reply to mihijime [2011-05-20 18:18:52 +0000 UTC]

you know the fabrick jersy?
well, doll makers use puppet jersey, its much finer of structure it is elastic but not that much as normal jersey, alsoo you can use it on both sides
in my country every good art shop sorted in textiles sells it
good luck finding it (maybe on the internet?)

mihijime In reply to DarkDollArt [2011-05-20 19:30:20 +0000 UTC]

I'll try the internet then. I don't have a real good textile/fabric store around here and get most of my fabrics online anyway. Thanks so much for the info.

DarkDollArt In reply to mihijime [2011-05-21 09:02:23 +0000 UTC]

mihijime In reply to DarkDollArt [2011-06-03 17:17:40 +0000 UTC]

Hey again. I was wondering if your offer to help me look for the puppet jersey was still open? I have had no luck looking for it either through my fabric stores (or their suppliers) or on the net. I don't know if I am explaining it very well to them or even clling it by the right name...lol!

But maybe if you could point me in the right direction or something I would greatly appreciate it. The fabric is just lovely and looks so "skin" like!!

Thanks for your time!

DarkDollArt In reply to mihijime [2011-06-05 09:35:45 +0000 UTC]

i had a look on the net for you but indeed its hard to find or buy it on there.
i cant help you further with that.
what i can do is ginving you a hint;
the fabric is compareable with a cotton top or undy that streches a lot.
for instance white or skin coloured women underwear....sounds wierd, but that you can use what we use for puppets is almost the same but then a lil thicker....i think from 1 taille slip you can make 1 dollor 1 top, more then 1....
hope i helped you a lil with this
