Butterfly Kisses in the Garden

My Little Darling, Gina, and I had our photo shoot for this ensemble outside in the garden.  It was a very breezy, but beautiful day.  This tiny little butterfly seemed quite taken with Gina.  It flitted and fluttered and tickled her nose.

I’ve been looking at Remy as I create outfits for other dolls and vowed to make something soon just for Remy.  She has quite an artistic, eclectic personality so nothing too matchy matchy would work for her.  She likes feminine things, but the outfit has to look casually put together.  The dress is a peach floral print with a pink mesh ruffle at the hemline.  A blue and pink silk ribbon tie at the waist and in her hair.  This is what I made for her and I think it fits her personality well.  As a bonus Remy can share this dress with Kish Bethany.

Photos from my “Days” album (a place where I keep a visual documentary of my day-to-day work and things that happened that day).  From top left going clockwise:  my embroidery from an Amelia Thimble hand knit dress, spools of cotton crochet thread that I used for knitting doll sweaters, my new silk ribbon in a dye bath, one of my pincushions holding open “Knit Edgings & Trims” while I try out some new knit patterns, vials of beads used on my sweaters, some new yarn from Knit Picks, right after my first foray into dying wool yarn while drying in the warm spring air, embroidery from a dress bodice for Dianna Effner’s Little Darling dolls, and (center) three new fabrics that arrived from the Fat Quarter Shop that I absolutely loved.
