A Doll a Day in April: Day Seven - Lewis Schoenhut.

My doll for today is Lewis.   He is finally going to get changed out of his green outfit that he has been wearing for cough cough, at least a year!  He has his big trunk of clothes to look through.

He has a lot of warm winter clothing!

Just a little look before he gets changed.  

Such a wonderful boy he is.

He has chosen some brown themed items.  He is wearing is owl tanktop/vest for the colder mornings and evenings.

Love this boy.

He likes to be adventurous!

Don't fall in Lewis.

Having a conversation with Grandpa Gnome.

 

Pretty in Pink

And a 'just because' post of my dear Peggy Sue.

I made her a new dress and a little short sleeve cardigan.

She is very pleased to be getting some attention after such a long time.

I think she looks so pretty in this.  

I don't think I have dressed her much in pink before, but it suits her.

 

A Doll A Day in April: Day Six - Smart Doll Rose Resilient

Just a couple of photos today as I wasn't happy with the others. 

I changed Rose's wig back to the one she arrived in originally.  

I think she looks okay in it.

She is a lovely doll, but I think I prefer the smaller and more child like dolls such as Sasha, Schoenhut, and even smaller. 

A Doll a Day for April: Day Five - Little 11 inch Schoenhut

 

Today's doll is my little 11 inch Schoenhut doll.  I bought a load of shoes form Aliexpress for what I thought would be my Makie dolls, but they were way too big despite me measuring and rechecking several times.  I didn't think I had any dolls that they would fit, but the fit this little girl, so although a bit 'modern' for her, they work well, just the straps needed trimming or cutting off completely.

She is wearing what I think is a bleuette dress I made, I can't remember who I originally made the dress for.

She looks cute in it, and here you get a glimpse of the shoe.  I bought several different colours, so I guess I ought to get cracking and make some clothes to match the shoes!

She is such a petite little thing.

A Doll A Day for April: Day Four - Saige

 Today's doll of the day is my beautiful Saige.  You can read about her arrival in 2013 here: An Amazing Surprise

Here she is wearing her 'Meet' outfit.  She is Girl of the Year 2013.

I changed her into this dress I knitted quite a few years ago in 2017.

The colours bring out the blue in her eyes.

Here she is looking pretty in the garden.

This doll is very special to me as she was a completely unexpected surprise from my son for my birthday all the those years ago.

A Doll A Day for April: Day Three - Everlee Rose Morgan

Today's doll for today is Everlee Rose Morgan, my 1970s Sasha.

She is one of my favourite Sasha dolls...but shhh don't tell the rest.

The garden is looking pretty

So is Everlee Rose.

She has such a lovely face.

I don't know who made her outfit as it was given to me.

But she looks good in it.

 

A Doll A Day for April: Day Two - Chrissa/Chrissy

Chrissa or as I call her Chrissy is a Girl of the Year American Girl from 2009.

She is wearing a dress I knitted 12 years ago. 

I changed her into something brighter for the spring, another knitted dress.

She is so cute.
