Holly’s Turn!

Here is my sweet Holly (Ruby Red Fashion Friend named Stella) in her new ensemble called, “My Delicate Rose”. If you like lilac and pink… BTW, my dear grandmother’s two favorite colors were lilac and pink. I hope she is smiling down on Stella and loving her new look.

I think this floral print is absolutely gorgeous. I wish that I had purchased more than 1/2 yard of this one. It is long gone, I’m afraid. I think I have just enough for one more doll dress. It’s a beauty, isn’t it? The precious piece of tatted lace I had in my stash is the perfect icing on this cupcake.

Holly’s cardigan is the perfect shade of lilac, and so very fuzzy and soft. I let the embroidery on this one go nice and slow. I carefully worked at it over the course of a few sessions. I am very pleased with the end result.

I felt a simple hair ribbon to be the perfect piece to adorn Holly’s locks. It matches the sash, but is slightly narrower. Anklets too, seemed perfect. A pretty bouquet and butterfly adorned bracelet complete this spring ensemble.

Holly picked these flowers just for you! She says, “With love, from Holly” ❤️

As the spring (or autumn) season finishes up I am wishing you all beautiful days ahead. Sending hugs🤗 from my studio.

May is Going, Going, and Almost Gone! Yikes!

Oh my goodness! Has this month ever flown by!!! Back in mid April I showed you Evianna all dressed up in her new ensemble, “Beautiful in Blue”. I have since finished two more ensembles. See, I have been busy!

The first is for the Little Darlings and Gina is modeling. The second is for the Ruby Red Fashion Friends with Holly modeling. Both are delicate rosy creations with mohair sweaters.

“Pretty in Pink Roses” for the Little Darlings features lots and lots of pink, flowers, and cloud-like softness.

I have said this before, but I’ll say it again. Oh, how I wish this cardigan were for me, but I will have to settle with gazing at this adorable girl wearing it so beautifully.

The pendant is made with a genuine freshwater pearl. It has two length adjustments, choker or midway on the chest. Isn’t that exciting! 😁

Gina’s floral headband and bouquet tells you just how much this girl loves flowers. She may be part flower fairy… hmm.

White mesh tights and a petite heart bracelet complete Gina’s new ensemble.

I think I will show you Holly’s new ensemble in my next post. This post is long enough already! So stay tuned, if you’d like to see that one.

Thank you so much for spending some time with me today! ❤️🤗 Enjoy the rest of your day. I hope it’s a beautiful one.

Hello, how are you? Spring busted out all over this past week. We went from winter to summer in no time. This past week was that hot! 🌞 After one week the summery weather is through for awhile though. It’s getting cold again, and soon the rain will become snowflakes. It’s so hard to adjust…

Regardless of the temperature variations, everything is greening up, including Lucy’s new cardigan. I am really loving green lately–such a fresh and down-to-earth color.

Here is Lucy’s sweater that I embroidered with pink roses.

And, here is Lucy wearing it with her new spring dress and accessories.

Lucy is my Little Darling, sculpt #3, painted by Helen Skinner. This happy girl reminds me of the smiling Ruby Red Fashion Friends that Dianna Effner sculpted. They never fail to make me feel a bit happier.
