Looking Pretty Groovy!

I've been trying a new hair technique/style on the Pocket Poppets, and have been enjoying the results.  It takes me a lot longer to do, but the color variation, and the firm hold to the point I can run a comb through the doll's hair, is totally worth it.  I hope folks will agree when I start listing these in the Etsy store. :)

Here is a preview of things to come:

Wee Dragon Invasion

It's been a while, but here are some of the latest Wee Dragons I've been working on.  The pattern is based on a TypingWithTea pattern.

I have them shown with an 18" Madame Alexander play doll, and a Maudlynne Macabre doll to get an idea of size.  Your dolls need toys, too, right?  :D

These will be available in the Etsy store soon!

Binky Boos With Eyeglasses

As a nearsighted person who can't handle the thought of contact lenses, or even less the thought of laser corrective surgery, glasses are on my face every waking hour (and sometimes a couple sleeping hours).

So it seems only natural that some Binky Boos may need specs, too.  :)

Both will be available in the Etsy store soon!

 

New Species Of Felt Creature Discovered!

When I sew past my normal bedtime, fueled by a strong cup of espresso I knew I shouldn't have drank so late in the evening, this is what I come up with:

The Common Two Horned NOPE.

I anticipate the discovery of more of these NOPES in the near future, and a new category in my Etsy store.  :D

For those who may not be able to read my sloppy handwriting, here is the text from the photo:

The Common Two Horned NOPE!

Frequently found in Monday mornings (especially after a long weekend), rain on a camping trip, decaffeinated coffee in a caffeine-addict's mug, and in your first instinctive response to being asked to help someone's cousin move across town.

This one was collected after an unually warm evening without air conditioning.

It is currently in stasis, pending the next set of annoying or unreasonable circumstances.
