“Rosy Cute” for Pukipuki

Little Sugar pestered me today and asked me if it wasn’t about time that her new dress be put on my website. It seems that the Little Darlings and Penny have been getting all of the attention for the entire month of January. Hmm… I wonder how long before the other girls will be in an uproar too. I had better start making things more fair around here.

Without further ado, here is Sugar looking as sweet as can be. Her tiny dress is hand knit with a lace weight tonal alpaca/silk yarn and embroidered with rosy roses, plum floral sprays, and tiny white buds. She even has a little bouquet just for you.

Sugar loves cuddling with her favorite stuffed animals; they are so soft and cozy.

With our first snowfall now behind us and Christmas right around the corner, it is the perfect time to debut Gina and Lucy’s “Snowmen and Candy Canes” ensemble.

The Little Darlings’ hand knit mohair/silk sweater is embellished with embroidered snowflakes in shades of light blue, crystal seed beads, and a wool felt embellished snowman.

The hand knit candy cane striped scarf can be worn a variety of ways.

The Week So Far

Here in northern Illinois we’ve had a rather warm week, until today… it’s sooo blustery, which makes it seem sooo COLD. My cold tolerance is pretty low right now, so I’ve been wearing my knee length down coat today. We’re expecting our first snowfall late Friday into Saturday. It seems too soon, but it really isn’t.

Today, even though it was blustery and cold, the sun shone brightly. I walked outside with my camera to photograph possibly one of our last “green grass” days for awhile.

These leaves were REALLY blowing when I snapped this photo.

The pachysandra still looks pretty; it stays green, but is covered with snow most of the winter.

Other news, my new Little Darling painted by Helen Skinner arrived on Monday! Ohhh, happy day!!! I waited approximately 30 seconds to open her. Ha ha, such discipline.

I asked my daughter to name her for me, and she picked Lucy. I do like the wig she arrived in, but for fun I tried lots of wigs on her and I like her best as a redhead. Did you ever notice how, even though we can change our dolls wigs, there seems to be a hair color that suits them the best? For Lucy it is auburn or carrot; Gina looks best as a brunette. Lucy is my second Little Darling and is the #3 sculpt. I love how she always seems so happy. It sounds silly, but seeing that smiling face makes me happier. Helen did a phenomenal job bringing her to life. I also really like the new arms on the Little Darlings; Lucy holds onto things such as dolls and stuffed animals very easily, too cute.
