Patience & Amelia Thimble Show Off Their New Outfits

Patience and Amelia Thimble (both from Wilde Imagination) are so very excited to show you their new “sister” outfits.

They love their super soft knitwear that I hand knit out of lace weight kid mohair/silk yarn in a shade of pink that reminds me of cotton candy.  I hand embroidered little forget-me-nots in shades of floss to match the print in Patience’s dress.  I gave Amelia an extra flower on her dress, my interpretation of the multi-petaled mum like pink flower.  They are happy girls, can you tell?

I tucked my delicate new cotton cluny lace between a fold in the skirt.  Love this lace!

I think the colors in this print (Hope Chest by Josephine Kimberling) are so pretty for fall.  The pinks and turquoise blues are muted just enough for autumn.  The terracotta, rust, and green are more typical for this time of year.  I love all of these colors together!  I am always looking for fall color palettes to have “pretty” colors in them.  I typically do not like complete earth tone color palettes.

Amelia says, “Thanks for stopping by!”  “Love you guys!”

Both of these OOAK outfits are now available on my website.

It’s Starting to Feel a Bit Like Halloween

I’ve been pulling out my orange fabrics and embroidery threads, mixing up different shades of orange dye for my wool, and buying tiny pumpkins and candy corn for photo shoots.  So here in my studio it is “starting to feel a bit like Halloween” even though it is still over a month away.

I made three teeny tiny dresses for Amelia Thimble.  I custom mixed and hand dyed all the oranges for these dresses.  The embroidery took some thought.  It was a challenge figuring out how to embroider pumpkins and candy corn.  The first dress coordinates with an outfit I made for Wilde Imagination’s new Patience doll.  See pics below Amelia.

Here is Patience in her new outfit.  I absolutely love this new doll.  I wish there was more time in the day.  There are so many things I would like to make for her.

And, there is Amelia being a bit of a rascal again.  Patience is appropriately named and puts up with all of Amelia’s shenanigans.

Amelia is a helpful rascal.  Here she is showing off Patience’s sweater.

Amelia Thimble Has a New Friend & Her Name is Patience

New Patience from Wilde Imagination (Tonner) arrived last week.  She is so adorable that she sold out in a matter of days!  Her face is just too cute with her side glancing eyes and larger than normal head size.  I found it so easy to capture her expressive nature with my camera.  Much to Amelia Thimble’s delight Patience is multi-jointed so she can cuddle with her.  What a cute pair they make, don’t you think!
