No. 1 - When
I saw Abby's tutorial for Josephine doll I thought it was FINALLY time to try
and sew my first doll or two. I have been planning to do that for a couple of
years. I have even bought some books, but I was afraid if I fail and the end
result does not meet my expectations it will be the first and last doll for me.
And I did not want that to happen. But Abby's dolls seemed easy enough and
tutorial very detailed. And I am actually happy with the result. Although I
have to say everything seems so easy when a pro does it. And I really struggled
to get the limbs out of the body (next time I will try to pull them out with a
crochet hook). And I overstuffed the head which (in combination with poor
quality felt) resulted with my dolls looking as if they are getting bald. But
despite their shortcomings they are very well loved.
No. 2 – The
weather is FINALLY nice and sunny and springlike and we are really enjoying it.
Spring is definitely my favourite season. So the dolls seized the
opportunity to have a picnic in our garden and I used the chance to take a
couple of pictures of them soaking up the sun.
No. 3 – And
I have FINALLY written one more post!
