It’s Starting to Feel a Bit Like Halloween

I’ve been pulling out my orange fabrics and embroidery threads, mixing up different shades of orange dye for my wool, and buying tiny pumpkins and candy corn for photo shoots.  So here in my studio it is “starting to feel a bit like Halloween” even though it is still over a month away.

I made three teeny tiny dresses for Amelia Thimble.  I custom mixed and hand dyed all the oranges for these dresses.  The embroidery took some thought.  It was a challenge figuring out how to embroider pumpkins and candy corn.  The first dress coordinates with an outfit I made for Wilde Imagination’s new Patience doll.  See pics below Amelia.

Here is Patience in her new outfit.  I absolutely love this new doll.  I wish there was more time in the day.  There are so many things I would like to make for her.

And, there is Amelia being a bit of a rascal again.  Patience is appropriately named and puts up with all of Amelia’s shenanigans.

Amelia is a helpful rascal.  Here she is showing off Patience’s sweater.

Fall Ensemble for Little Darling Dolls

Gina, my Effner Little Darling doll, is so excited to show you her brand new fall outfit.  It’s oh so colorful in it’s “not your typical” fall color palette.  Her favorite part of the ensemble is the striped knit wool hat to keep her cute little ears toasty and warm.  To see more pictures and for additional information on this outfit, please visit Cindy Rice Designs.
