Dolly home for a spa treatment

A while back I got an email from a lovely customer of mine from a few years ago, 

if I would be able to do a little repair on Dolly (Fiona) and maybe give her a spa treatment.

I could not wait to see her again!!!

I have to admit that when she arrived I was moved to tears. 

Seeing a doll of mine being sooo loved by two little girl makes me unbelievably happy!!

What bigger reward can a doll maker get then knowing one of your creations , that you made with your own hands is not sitting on a shelf, but loved and part of children's lives.

Dolly got a nice long soak in some warm water with some Woolite.

She really enjoyed it!

Then it was time to come out of the water and get dried .

First I squeezed most of the water out of her and then got her all snuggled up in a large towel .

She had a warm spot in the sun for a couple of days until she was all dried out.

Then it was time for the some styling and a new dress for the journey home .

Doesn't she look cute with her buns and in her new dress ?

Soon it was time to get her ready to go back home to her girls. 

They were missing her already and her stay with me was much longer then planned.

I'm still in love with this sweetie and really had a hard time letting her go again.

What a wonderful experience this has been for me.
I hope she has many more adventures in the futures!

Some custom work...

I was able to get some custom work done over the last week.

Yeah me! 

I really miss working on my creations and had a lot of fun making this pocket baby.

This PJ set is similar to the one I made for little Lunette the other day.

I love the color of this set .

Speaking of working on my creations.....

I will be able to show some pictures very soon of what I have been working on for the last few days.

 It's something I haven't done in a looong time....

I'm so excited!!!!

Pj's for Lunette

My little house guest Lunette got new PJ's on the weekend.

I also made her a little bear blankie that is just the right size for her to cuddle with.

Travels with Lunette

New Owls and Bunnies in the shop

I just listed 2 new bunnies and 2 new owl in my shop.

Here is the link to my shop.

This time they are all red brown.....

SOLD

 I love the color combination of this bunny. 

The light green of the cotton velour with the red brown terry and orange green and grey fabric is just wonderful.

The birdy fabric of this owls wings work great with the red brown as well.

 This bunny's cotton fabric has the same red brown and turquoise colors as the terry and velour.

Perfect match!

SOLD

And then there is the this cutie. 

Green goes so well with the red brown and white terry.

This week.....owls and bunnies

This week I'm working on these owls and bunnies.

I like to do a bunch of the same colors together so that I don't have to switch treads all the time.

I hope to have them done by the end of the week, depending how I work in my day job .

I might do some more in different colors after, but I'm not sure yet.

Some other projects are stuck in my head for already way too long....

I keep you posted.

Here you can see  some pictures from this weekends walk in the woods.
