Patience in Purple Roses

Do you know the meaning of purple roses?  I must confess that I didn’t even think purple roses actually existed so I googled purple roses and read about them here.  They are real, a human invention, but they do exist.

Purple roses convey enchantment and enthrallment which is definitely how I felt about Patience the very first time I caught a glimpse of her.  Who better to wear my new doll ensemble featuring this beautiful fabric of purple roses.

Even though the word enchantment by definition can be fleeting, I am still much enchanted with Patience, aren’t you?

Some Hugs

…from dear, sweet, Patience.

It’s been a while since my Patience has been featured in a post and I was starting to feel bad.  Am I a bad doll mom?  Maybe…ugh…okay, okay, no more guilt.

Here she is…

…in all of her whimsical cuteness!

I think this ensemble matches Patience’s personality perfectly, don’t you?  The sunny and warm cotton print features lots and lots of different heart motifs and little lovey dovey birdies, such fun to look at, if you can take your eyes off of her cute face, that is.

Patience’s dress looks pretty without the cardigan too.

You won’t see too many of my crocheted pieces with embroidery. For me, embroidering on crochet is touch and go because the crocheted fabric is “bumpy” and it’s hard to get the stitches to lay on top of the fabric. However, when the pieces work out, like this headband, I really like the look.

Patience & Izzy’s New Sister Set

Patience and Izzy are feeling so sweet and rosy in their new coordinating outfits.  Patience and Izzy’s cardigan, sweater dress, and hat and are knit in fine lace weight baby alpaca/silk yarn.  It is very soft and has a nice drape to it.  I hand dyed the yarn for Izzy’s set to pick up the blue in Patience’s floral print dress.  Patience’s hat is crocheted in three natural fibers with a brim that can be worn up or down.  The dress’s fabric is a fine cotton print from Japan and features the prettiest pastel flowers and ribbons in pinks, sky blue, green, and yellow.  I used hand dyed silk ribbon and fine English cotton cluny lace for special touches in this coordinating set.
