- Felicity is now entirely done! This week, I'm making all of her accessories -- an embroidered muff, embroidered mitts, and a lace trimmed cap, as well as a necklace and adding hooks and eyes to the stomachers. And of course, the final reveal of the completed look!

Lol. Dora with the tape on her head
Congratulations on getting in, and good luck in the competition. This came out just amazingly.
I’m not a huge American Girl fan, I was an adult when they were popular. That being said I love your enthusiasm. Your dress and accessories turned out amazing.❤️ congrats on the acceptance in the competition.
I love the muff, it's dainty, and looks like a reasonable scale.
Could you put a finger loop on the mitts to keep them from flapping over?
The whole outfit turned out amazing, and your enthusiasm for it is so infectious!
Thanks! That's a good idea!
I was rooting for the silk mitts instead of the vinyl. So glad you made that choice. You look absolutely adorable in the ensemble.
Haha, Dora's "i am not amused by tape on my head" face was very amusing. We used to let the horses play withe tape when we undid taped leg wraps, stick it on their nose and they just stand there wiggling their taped nose for five minutes till the tape falls off...keeps 'em busy while you do the other three legs!
I had the same issue with the thumb hole when I tried making some hand warmers, something about how hands are shaped. I now have the appropriate notes on my pattern...
Glad the hooks and bars worked for the stomacher, the ribbon one is really pretty. it's always a bit dicey trying to upsize things from dolls since they're rarely proprtioned anything like an adult human, so congrats on getting that all to look so cute!
It’s so fun to see both you and Sewstine do this dress. So different and both great.
Yay the hooks and bars worked for you! I am so excited for you. You look so dang happy. Adult Joy is the best thing to witness. Congratulations on being accepted and I really hope you win.
I love the way the ribbon stomacher came out! And congratulations on getting accepted into the competition. I'll be wishing you the best of luck from Texas.
Thanks!
You look even cuter than Felicity! I wouldn't be able to keep hooks and bars closed when leaning over, breathing, etc. I would have used heavy duty snaps. I would vote for the ribbon stomacher because it is so unique and so obviously well recreated.
Because of the stays and the fit of the gown, they stay closed really well! And thanks!
I'm thinking about saving for an embroidery machine. I always loved the look of it.
It turned out so WOW!! You look amazing! Dora is so cute with the pink tape bow on her head.
This is so stinking cute! Really love the ribbon stomacher, the muff embroidery reads very similar to the original. Very glad you went with the silk and not the vinyl, it would be so warm and uncomfortable. And Dora is soo cute when she try's to swat the camera❤
Wow, you’ve done such a beautiful job! I’ve never even seen anyone attempt the accessories before, and they all look absolutely incredible. Thanks for the tip on the hooks and bars. This is a dream dress for me too, and I aspire to make something as stunning as yours one day! ✨
Thank you!
Twinning and winning! Looks awesome!! Good luck in the competition!!
You can add a little nude or white elastic loop, that can loop over your middle finger, to keep the triangle point part of the mitt from flipping up. We used to wear accessories like this in dance in the 80s. And we stuck our 3rd fingers through a little elastic loop to make the accessory behave. A lot of figure skating costumes have this too. You can get the gist from those.
This is WONDERFUL! All the planning & occasional frustrations & much, much more were worth it..... easy for me to say!!! I really like the smaller muff as matches her. Much bigger & I believe would block the details of dress & hands. Twill away. 😉☺️
You can get ribbon ends in various sizes that you can add a clasp to or you can fold the end of the ribbon and use a smaller one if you cannot find a wide one.
I’m from Australia so I’ve learned about American girl dolls exclusively from you! This is such an adorable and amazing dress recreation! Even better is how happy you are 🥰 good luck in the cosplay competition! You’re definitely gonna be tough to beat!
Awww the pink tape looked like a pretty bow on her head!
With regard to your gloves turning back, you could make a small finger loop with clear cotton. You look beautiful in this gown, I hope you win xx
Just love how that turned out. Good example on how just little machine embroidery can also be fantastic!
Thank you! ☺️
You and Felicity look like twins! I LOVE how your gown came out! It's gorgeous!! 😍🥰😍 Best of LUCK at the cosplay competition!! I hope you win! 🙂 As for keeping the top of your mitts close to your hands, for muff insertion, maybe a loop of ribbon or string elastic on the point that would fit your finger like a ring would help keep them from flipping up. 🙂
OMG, you look perfecly like Felicity! You did an amazing job. Good luck at the costume contest!
Thank you!
Yay! Just lovely and congratulations on being accepted into the costume contest, fingers crossed.
This is amazing! Every detail was captured, I'm truly impressed. This dress was a staple in my childhood. I grew up in Williamsburg, Colonial Williamsburg was less than two miles from my house, and my father worked there. I've always adored fashion from this era, and this dress was always one of my favorites. I tip my hat to your cosply, m'lady ♡
Okay, love the dress and all the accessories! It’s a great color on you and you and Felicity look amazing together! Go get ‘em at Comic-Con! I loved how excited and pleased you are with your result!
How beautiful you look, and so much like your lovely doll. Congratulations on a brilliant job. I give you an A+
You look like you walked right out of the book! As an AG fan, may I say you have brought many a grown up's inner child joy with this cosplay! Well done. Good luck entering the competition! 🤞
You look absolutely wonderful. A fantastic colour on you. A win is coming your way xxxx
What a sewing journey. Your costume is beautiful and you look great in it. Thanks for sharing and break a leg at ECCC.
If you stitch a tiny elastic ring to the inside of mitt, you can slip the ring over your middle finger to prevent flipping up.
Yep, I stitched little rubber bands to the points.
Literally living my childhood dream. Beautiful job!
Good luck in the competition. The outfit is beautiful. You are so talented and hard working.
Love. Just love this costume. The ribbon bodice is amazing and the dress is my favourite colour too!
Thank you! It's my favorite color too.
What a fun video! Also Dora is priceless
i like the stomacher you have on now, the pearls down the middle of it sparkles...
The dress is gorgeous and makes your waist look so tiny! Love it!😊
Love the dress! Good luck with your entry! You are very talented Rebecca and so full of energy. Wishing you super well and success! 🥰
Soooo Pretty! I'd love to see the ensemble with the lace stomacher too. The muff is so cute and really does seem to match the size of hers. That stunning blue color of the dress looks amazing on you!
My good woman! You have outdone yourself!!! You have created a perfect replica AND that color is superb on you! Bravo! BRAVO!!! Hats off to you for choosing the silk faille. You are, after all, a lady of quality!
The whole ensemble looks so lovely! You look identical to Felicity, it's so cool ❤
Another gorgeous project! It turned out terrific! Just FYI "Kofi" is pronounced the same as "coffee." That's why they use a mug as a unit/logo. :-)
What a lovely dress! Dream come true ❤
It turned out so well! Looks so good. Beautiful, beautiful.
You look like a princess, Rebecca I hope you won the contest dressed as felicity
Thank you! I didn't win, but I had fun anyway.
That is So Funny! The inside of both of my knees. If I cover them, I get instantly warm.
This looks SO AMAZING!!!! Best of luck!
Congrats on making it into the competition. Break a leg!!!
Congrats on getting accepted to the competition! You've done a stellar job on this outfit.
Oh. My. Goodness!!! So in love with this!!!
It is nice to see you so happy!
I love this outfit. You do look just like Felicity!
Congratulations on finishing it. It’s very well done and looks amazing. Good luck at the con and have fun!
Thank you!
Oh it’s just perfect! That style is so flattering on you
Thank you!
Beautiful job as usual. I hope to see you at comic con.
Beautifull outcomes as always, but since you’ve made and 18th century cap, do you have a 1850s cap in plan? For the plaid dress?
Thanks! I've done a mid-Victorian cap before, but since I knew I was wearing that outfit outside, I went with the bonnet.
It looks great and your choice of fabric is fine. I'm totally on team pink bow! Good choice about changing fabrics for the mittens, and congrats on getting into the competition!
OMG! Stunning!
Thanks!
I think the thumb loop or finger-ring is implied...but since her hands are so small...they left it out...so if you need to add a finger loop...go for it.
Interrupting watching to write. My cat is not the only strange cat that eats tape! My cat stole the entire tape dispenser when I was wrapping presents. Just picked it up by the tape part and waltzed off with it.
Dora luckily doesn't often try it, but my old roommate's cat couldn't get enough. We couldn't allow him anywhere near packing boxes, because he would eat the packaging tape on them!
Wow, this turned out so beautifully! Well done!
Congrats on being accepted! It must be so exciting!
Thanks! It's both exciting and nerve wracking!
Amazing job! I love the American Girl content, and you have really taken it on to the limit. Good luck in the competition!!
WOW, you look fabulous! Love it!
xoxo's Sandie😍
You might add some of the Blue material of the dress on each end of the muff and re-stuff, just because, you could honestly wear that muff with other things if you wanted. its lovely. anyway just a thought!
You look amazing! I especially love the pinner cap and the muff! I’ve always wanted a muff, they look so cozy! Might have to make one
Cute! Stunning! Congratulations! Best of luck!
i just love your american girl outfits, the attention to detail and the journey is fun..
For the muff pattern on the tiny one...it's reminiscent of butterflies.
So awesome!!
Thanks!
It looks great and I love that shade of blue x
Absolutely adorable!
Thanks!
Wow, you look amazing. I hope you win at Emerald City comic con
I recognized that embroidery machine sound. Been there done that.
Dora: "You're embarrassing me on that internet tube thing again, aren't you? I will put up with it in exchange for pats and center stage on your show...thing. Whatever this is."
Lovely! Good luck with the competition. I would absolutely be putting armpit vents in that bodice, though, if you're wearing polyester all day.
Absolutely amazing!!! It literally looks like you just pulled it out of the book! I love this and how happy you are with it! I aspire to become this good one day! Personally I prefer the lace stomacher because I love lacy things, but the ribbon one turned out perfectly! I've enjoyed watching your whole process of making her gown and look forward to more ag cosplays!
Thank you!
@@LadyRebeccaFashions you're welcome 😊
Beautiful!
you are so going to win the contest!! be sure to have a friend film it for us..
I don't think I'll win at all (a lot of the entries are really crazily amazing), but it should hopefully be fun to compete! I plan to vlog the con, so I'll have a video out on the whole thing.
It looks splendid!!!!
Lol😂 Dora!!!!!❤ so cute and sassy! Don’t forget that felicity was young so she would have been gifted or bought clothes that she could mature into!
I'm sure you already know this, but.... Acrylic paint on cloth can look like leather. If you want a 'slick' finish, put the paint on quite thickly and stretch saran wrap over the top. Dry it cloth side up, and then peel off the saran. If you have any silicon texture stamps (I recommend Iron Orchid) they can be used to give it an appropriate texture. I find this much more comfortable to wear than real leather and a million times better than plastic. But, I live in Texas and it is seldom cool unless the world is encrusted in ice. :)
Oh interesting!
I don't know if you decide on hooks and bars because I suggested it. But I was just thinking that it would be safer to wear all day and probably easier to put together than pins. I really want to do a Doctor Strange cosplay. I have the pattern and a couple of the accessories. I just need to get all the fabric and trimmings and rest of the accessories.
It kind of looked like you put the thumb piece on incorrectly, but who am I to say. I've never made mitts before. They still look great. Congratulations on getting accepted and best of luck in the competition.
That turned out beautifully! I wouldn't mind wearing a black history-bounding dress that looked similar to yours (with modern undergarments and leggings underneath, of course).
Do you have a favorite 18th century dress bodice/jacket pattern? I have a skirt nearly finished but I have no idea where to start with the bodice.
Also, you are an absolutely AMAZING seamstress!!! All of your dresses are so beautiful and I love how you create historically accurate clothing.
Thank you! I've been altering various patterns from projects that I made before, but I did have pretty decent luck with the Amalia bodice from Scroop, and I would imagine that their Angelica gown pattern would be pretty decent too.
Loved this Felicity series!! ❤️The whole outfit turned out beautifully! 💙💙💙💙💙💙
I say nice fabric for the mitts would be a good idea
I love it!
The costume looks great good luck for the competition. You assistant Dora is very cute I think she needs a bigger role in your productions
Rebecca, well done!! Everything looks just beautiful and it was so enjoyable watching this series, thanks for all your hard work!❤
It came out incredible, I've really enjoyed seeing all that went into making this !
You look sooo cute in this dress ^^
Based on experience with embroidery on vinyl-you need 2+ layers of stabilizer or the vinyl will stretch and distort.
I make multiple key fobs at a time on mine and anytime I have tried to get away with only one layer of stabilizer it messes up my design.
Good to know!
Yay!!!!
you look so great, that must have been a lot of joy to work at :) say hello to dora for me, me and my cat think that pink looks cute on her ^_^
You are so beautiful, love the dress, and Dora is so cute
The moment you said vinyl mitts, I said noooooooo.
Hi Dora baby
Haha! Yeah, I'm glad I didn't wind up doing the vinyl.
I LOVE this project for you! It's really educational also. 😊 I love that you're competing! I'm sure you'll be really successful!
How could you not win? It's great!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you!
Would lining the mittens in linen make it feel better? Might make it a bit moisture wicking.
Would a stretchy thin leather work better? And a loop to hold it on your middle finger?
A thin leather probably would have worked well, but I like how the silk turned out. I don't really think even lining vinyl would have helped much.
