Biscuit's House

Sweeties

The cutest little doll ever has come to live with us. Puni has decided to call her Millie.

 

She's made of felt so incredibly soft you just want to be a baby and bury your face in it. It's just scrumptious. I definitely need to order some of this felt and one day, make little Pocket Pixies, though I know mine will never be as cute as Shelly's.

Millie is the latest in a long line of cute little dolls (most of which have since left us) allowed to play with the unimaginably miniature pink bear I got from a friend a long time ago in Japan. She wants to learn to sew and make more soft toys.

 

The little DandelionFair girls have decided to help her.

 

I got these girls last year, and should have taken photos of them much earlier than this. Christine is such a talented doll and toy maker, I'm looking forward to seeing more of her new hybrid wood/crochet little doll.

 

Here they are accompanied by a cute clothespin doll I got from Renata ...almost 2 years ago.

 

Everybody needs a little doll in their life...

3 dolls

I've been very lazy this week - resumed work after a week off, and in the evening and this week-end I only crocheted a couple of legs.

The unbearably cute dolls in By hook, by hand always make we want to make small dolls, and recently thanks to Beth I discovered Gingermelon dolls. I ordered the pattern for felt Pocket Pixie dolls, but these days I really don't feel like sewing. So I unearthed a crocheted doll pattern I bought on Etsy ages ago, and decided to make 3 little dolls. The limbs are all done, now I need to stuff and assemble them, the part of doll making that I like least of all. After that I can make their hair which will be more fun, and then dress them. To be continued...
