Some New Things for Amelia Thimble

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.

Amelia Christmas Dress and Hat Sets

With Thanksgiving about a week away the Christmas season is practically upon us!  I’ve made a couple more Christmas dress/hat sets for Amelia Thimble dolls.  This first set is called “Tiny Elf”.  Amelia is dressed and ready to help Santa with whatever tiny tasks he needs a hand with.  Her bell even jingles to add a bit of merriment to all of the work that needs to be done.

“Naturally Pretty” is the second set.  This dress is embroidered with beautiful flowers of the season.  A pink poinsettia, evergreen boughs, and berries are arranged in a pretty asymmetrical bouquet on Amelia’s dress.  Her hat has a large “fur trimmed” border and more embroidery.

The New Girl

I’d like to introduce my new girl, a Fairyland Pukipuki doll named Sugar.  She is 11cm tall so is only 1 cm taller than Amelia Thimble, but has a wider body and limbs.  She is not as delicate by far.  Her hands and feet pop off and on very easily with the help of magnets.  This makes it so easy for dressing or even adding a bracelet, no clasp needed.  I stuck a metal lid underneath my white fabric that I use for photographing and she stood without any fiddling around.  Love her!!!

I just finished this dress for her.  I asked Sugar what she would like for her first dress and she told me, “Roses in lots of  pretty colors.”  I guess it’s because they’re as sweet as she is.  I love how her first dress turned out.  Because she is a wider doll I found more space for embroidering her special roses.

It didn’t take long for Sugar to find a special friend.
