Mainly a bit of sewing on the creative front this week, although not a lot.
A dress for Wren. I wanted to make her a Christmas themed dress...so not really sure why I chose this fabric, seems, I now need to make her an ACTUAL Christmas dress, or so I have been informed anyway!
I've had this cloth kit Daisy Kingdom fabric for some time now so thought I would finally make up the dress.
It seemed to big for the American Girl dolls and my Daisy Kingdom doll is currently packed away so I tried it on Linda. I'm glad it turned out too big for the American Girl dolls, as it looks great on Linda and fits her well.
I had another cloth kit fabric so I made that up as well.
It fits Sienna Saige beautifully.
I've still got to sew up the little Scottie dog and the bag which I will probably do this coming week.
I've done some knitting and sewing for a Hitty Group challenge, but can't show those yet.
I made this bear last week, but couldn't show him until this week once I had given him to my friend for Christmas. Yes we gave (and opened) our presents early!.
I was thrilled to watch the expression on her face when she opened him. Reactions like that make the creative process of making a gift all the more worth while.
She has named him Leonard.
I am hoping to make some Christmas gifts this week....that is the goal anyway...whether or not I achieve them is another matter!
I love the dresses you made! I didn't know about these kinds of kits. They look like fun.
ReplyDeleteLeonard is adorable. He looks quite festive in the outfit you made for him. I am looking forward to seeing what gifts you received from your friend.
I think the kits are probably quite old? They were given to me a few years ago. I have made one other up, it was really pretty and one of my Daisy Kingdom dolls wears it.
DeleteHa ha, the gift I have received from my friend is a little different! Not sure my blog is ready for 'him' to be let loose on it yet! :D
