Gina, my Effner Little Darling doll, is so excited to show you her brand new fall outfit. It’s oh so colorful in it’s “not your typical” fall color palette. Her favorite part of the ensemble is the striped knit wool hat to keep her cute little ears toasty and warm. To see more pictures and for additional information on this outfit, please visit Cindy Rice Designs.

Amelia Thimble’s Everlasting Garden Dresses
Remember that handful of dresses in one of the previous posts? Well, here they are completed. I needed to photograph the dresses as a group. I am a color nut and love seeing them all together. Just yummy!!!
I took a picture of all of the hats together too. I have these small old wooden spools of silk thread and thimbles. They show just how tiny these hat are.
Here are some pictures of Amelia modeling the dresses.
By the time she had on the 4th dress she needed a break and sat down. I really couldn’t get her to stand up anymore. (honest)
Then, after a pep talk from me she put on the last dress and gave me a beautiful, if tired smile. She had quite a day.

A Handful of Amelia Thimble Dresses
Half a dozen Amelia Thimble knit dress sets are hot off my knitting needles. They are so tiny that all 12 pieces fit in the palm of my hand. I thought they looked cute all bunched together and wanted to share a picture. Now for the time consuming part, making them all extra special with hand embroidery.
Here are the dresses and hats on my blocking board. They get dampened with water and then pinned down to get rid of that curling you see in the picture above. Once they are dry the dresses and hat are nice and curl free.
