Just finished for Tonner’s Patsy Doll

Here are some sneak peaks of Patsy’s new outfit. In keeping with Patsy’s 1920’s style, this very feminine and colorful outfit has lots of hand embroidered details. Flower motifs to coordinate with the cotton Japanese print line up along the hemline. Each one is unique. Chain stitch embroidery and running stitch embroidery are more hand embroidered elements of this dress. The hand knit cotton bolero has a turned back collar with embroidered roses and light blue scalloped edging. Patsy’s hat is decorated with chain stitch embroidery along the edge and a crocheted flower and knit bow. I’d say Patsy is all ready for her next spring weekend adventure.

I’ve just completed this miniscule hand knit and embroidered dress for the Amelia Thimble doll. I cannot wait for the lilacs and roses to bloom so I made them bloom early on this dress.

New Looks for My Little Darling

I placed an order for some new Kemper mohair wigs a couple of months ago and wanted to share them with you. I am always amazed at the way a change in wig changes a doll’s look. I prefer mohair because the strands stay where you put them and I just prefer natural fibers. Kemper’s prices are very reasonable for these wigs and they arrived quickly.

The Tomboy wig is the only wig in my order that I thought I would never use. However, I found it looks adorable on my Little Darling when she is wearing a hat. It is in size 7″- 8″ (roomy, not tight) and in auburn.

I also ordered this Hannah mohair wig. I think it is very cute on my Little Darling. I haven’t yet styled it too much. It arrived in these spiral curls, instead of the waves like their website shows on Bleuette. I ordered the size 7″- 8″ for a roomy fit in the light brown color. For some reason this size and color are priced lower than other sizes and colors.

Lastly, I ordered Giselle wigs in pale pale blonde and medium brown (7″- 8″). I love pageboy bobs on my dolls. This style is thinned out, which I like. When these wigs arrived they needed some trimming to even out the shape and the blonde needed even more trimming than the brown color.
