doll: gakuran buttons

[matsushima]

pineisland-dolls:

my mom bought this gakuran for Ichīro in 2006 but he doesn't usually wear it because the buttons were comically out of scale.

20 years later, it occurred to me that I know how to sew a button? 🪡 it took awhile to find buttons that were the right size and I had to order them online but… ta-da! scale buttons for Ichīro's gakuran.

now I need to figure out how to bring in the hem of those pants because they're ½" too large, which is probably the doll equivalent of like three pant sizes. 🤣
