Millie’s “Cozy Christmas Color”

My tiny (11″) Kay Wiggs illie, Millie, is here today modeling her new (and first of the season) Christmas ensemble.  Doesn’t she look festive, cozy, and warm?

Last, But Not Least

Last, but not least is this tiny pumpkin patch dress for Amelia Thimble and Izzy.  This one is knit with two shades of yarn—light pumpkin and deep orange.  The light pumpkin border called for embroidery all of the way around the dress, so this last little dress has lots and lots of pumpkins growing in this pumpkin patch.

It’s Sugar’s Turn

It’s been a while since Sugar has had something new and she is super happy that it is her turn.

In case you are not familiar with this doll, Sugar is a BJD from Fairyland.  She is almost 4-1/2″ tall, so she is quite tiny.

sugar amelia pumpkin 825Sugar isn’t much taller than teeny tiny Amelia, but she is so much easier to pose.  For instance, both of them are standing in a metal wagon and since Sugar has little magnets embedded into her feet she sticks (even while wearing these Kelly doll shoes) to the wagon.  Even if the wagon wasn’t metal she still poses so much easier.  Sugar is less kicky than Amelia and seems to stay when she is posed.   Miss Amelia LOVES to sit in my hand to model and tends to throw herself on the floor if I don’t oblige her.  LOL  I have never had any tantrums with Sugar.
