Here's the cutie going to my eldest daughter. I made the pattern (found on Martha Stewart's website) slightly bigger, since she's the big sister.
Isn't she sweet? I gave her pigtails, by cutting a few felt hearts with my PTI dies...
A sweet little ruffled apron.
Sofia can take it off if she doesn't like it.
Big sister and little brother. So cute.
But, just so you don't think this was all a walk in the park, I'd like you to meet someone else.
You poor, sad looking doll. Thank you for teaching me a few things and for donating your legs to Sofia's new doll. You crushed my spirit for a few hours, but I still love you...
First of all, her hair is adorbs, even if she's a frankenbaby! "You crushed my spirit for a few hours" = me, laughing out loud.
ReplyDeleteElena you post totaly had me lol-ing !!
ReplyDeleteI think this is such a beautiful thing you are doing. I can imagine the dolls being lovingly handed down to grandchildren....priceless !!
These are wonderful, Elena! Your kids will cherish them...
ReplyDeleteThose dolls are so cute. I love the apron with the heart, and the hair accessory. I'm sure your kids will love them. Even the one you had to sacrifice is pretty cute. I think we'll see a revived form of her at some point.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely adorable. Love the apron. Your daughter is going to Lo e her. The photo of the two dolls is priceless. Thanks for sharing your trials too as we all have them.
ReplyDeleteThese are fabulous! Can I say that I am a little jealous?... yes, I am jealous! Great job!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet!!! Love her piggy tails and that sweet little apron!!
ReplyDeleteAmazing. These are so darling. Your quippy narrative is the best though. Thoroughly enjoyable post. I need these dollies!
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I also think this pattern should be a little bigger. Do you have this pattern in that bigger scale?
