One Month Before…Valentine’s Day!

Valentine’s Day is only a month away! I have just finished a huge lot (to me, anyway) of Valentine’s Day sets for Amelia Thimble and Pukipuki. I love the sweet colors for this holiday. There are seven different sets here, two are for Pukipuki and 7 are for Amelia Thimble and Izzy. I used different combinations of yarn types, yarn colors, and warm or cool color palettes. Pukipuki’s dress sets each coordinate with a set for Amelia Thimble and Izzy.

Pukipuki Sugar wants to give you her heart. She is modeling the “Hearts and Roses” set.

This is Amelia Thimble’s dress, “Tiny Valentine”, that coordinates with Pukipuki’s above it.

Izzy loves modeling with one of her favorite cuddly puppies.

Pukipuki Sugar loves her special friends too. Here she is modeling “Hugs ‘n Kisses”.

Izzy’s set, “Cuddly Hearts”, coordinates with Pukipuki’s above.

Some New Things for Amelia Thimble

4 Replies

Lately I have been very busy knitting and embroidering for tiny Amelia Thimble. She has had quite a busy year modeling for me. Too busy, in fact. Poor Amelia is quite exhausted. I had to do something for her. Last week I hired another model, Izzy, to help out Amelia. Soon you will see Izzy modeling my little dresses too. Not only is Amelia happy to have help with modeling, she is thrilled to have a new friend who is just like her.

It’s Starting to Feel a Lot Like Christmas…is Right Around the Corner

My little Amelia Thimble has been very, very busy lately. I have a handful of tiny “Christmasy” dresses made and she has had to model all of them. I must say that she did a very good job, looking as cute modeling the last dress as she did modeling the first. After Amelia’s job was done I told her that it would be a good idea to lie down and take a nap. She is such a little thing after all. However, my dear tiny Amelia wanted to chat with the new girl, who isn’t much bigger than she is. More on the new girl later…

Here is my first set of dresses. They are all knit out of super kid mohair/silk lace weight yarn. This yarn is so soft and fuzzy. I love it, but the fuzziness of it requires some patience when embroidering on it. I found myself always pulling those long mohair strands out of my embroidery. Grrr! Well worth the bit of aggravation though, don’t you think?

This trio of super kid mohair/silk dresses all have holiday themed embroidery. The pink dress is embroidered with a large red poinsettia at the waistline, mint green evergreen boughs, and clear seed beads. The lilac dress is embroidered with smaller poinsettias in pink and red. I added clear seed beads to this dress also. I think they give an icy effect to the embroidery.

I love this shade of blue. I know blue isn’t typically a Christmas color, but it seemed to work as a holiday dress when embroidered with holly. I just had to add some pink roses too.
