One More Fall Ensemble

I have one more fall ensemble and my Little Darling, Gina, is the lucky recipient before I go full steam ahead and create ensembles for Christmas and the holiday season.

I guess fall 2015 is the season of purples. Here’s another ensemble with a shade of lavender and pink, but this one is different. I don’t think I have ever seen a pink like this—cool, but muted. Usually, muted pinks go towards the peach and this one doesn’t at all, nor is it a sweet pink. It is so hard to explain; if I were to mix it up I’d take red and white to make pure pink, add a touch of blue to cool it down, then add a bit of yellow, so it becomes a neutral. Anyway, it is a very pretty and unique shade of pink.

I happened to have the perfect shade of muted lavender wool which matches the stems and vines in the print. For the embroidery, I brought in the merlot color for the colonial knot berries and a coordinating shade of the pink for the bullion, lazy daisy, and back stitched vines and leaves.

I also had the perfectly coordinating shade of merlot heather wool to make a cozy scarf. The scarf can be worn different ways.

Gina didn’t want flowers to hold, she wanted a soft and cuddly teddy bear, so I found this one in a burgundy red and knit him up his own muted lavender scarf with fringe. The scarf is removable too.

This print is very feminine, so lace accents and pearls went nicely with it.

Thanks for visiting and reading about Gina’s new ensemble. Bye for now!

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.

Hope you all had a fantastic weekend!

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 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.

Sugar’s dress is almost as tiny as Amelia Thimble’s dress.

My Pukipuki dress is in the middle. For more information on purchasing this dress/hat set, please visit my “Available for Sale” page at cindyricedesigns.com .
