Does this look right to you?

Post by elise1114 »

I prefer non-jointed bodies for babies with full limbs so I bought this one for my Lucy Kewy. When I put it on her though I'm not sure it looks right. Is it just me??

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Also, would anyone be willing to share nakey pics of their Lucy for comparison?

Thanks!
Warm regards,
Cher Elise

Looks fine to me. I think she will look adorable when dressed.

It just looks slightly long and skinny, but not horribly. I'd just personally use a tiny bit shorter and wider body for her since she is a chubbier baby. Other than that, it looks fine.

Stick some clothes and a diaper on her and then see if she looks odd to you still.
I think you will be able to judge better when she's wearing clothes.
Her body looks a bit long without clothes but might not be with them, you know?

Looks kind of long and skinny to me also. I have received several bodies that look just like that with kits and I never use them, because I don't like that long, skinny torso. I make my own using Chelle's pattern, nice chubby body! The only problem is, Chelle's patterns don't work for full arms as they have caps. Maybe she made one like that later, but I don't have it. With clothing on Lucy might look OK, but I like it when the baby looks proportional with no clothing on also!

I am sure Chelle does have those patterns now, I really must get a set! Been meaning to for over a year now *DOH*

I've used that body. If you don't like long and skinny it's going to drive you nuts.
