part of a custom im doing for a very patient momma. She wanted a normal sized doll, for her eldest daughter, and a baby sized doll for her youngest. I have not made a "baby" type doll yet, so i had to create a new pattern. This doll has a cloth diaper, swaddeling blanket and a cap. I have never sewn a diaper before, so that was something new as well!lol, but im glad with the outcome. shes a very sweet little doll. I did her eyes sleeping, to be a little less scary for the little girl. she about 9 inches long, with a little plump belly. Overall, i really like how she turned out and i think ill make more in the future.

Skirt set previews are up! i have 3 sets stocking June 3rd, at Mainstreet congo. i have a 2T,3T, and a 4T set. I also got my friend, Dena of Lulubird Designs, in on the stocking. she did a shirt to match one of my skirts. Please check the sets out! Remember, if a set is too big for your little one now, you can buy it and put it away for them to grow into. I cant guarantee that i will make these same sets again, so you have to get them when i stock them!

Buster Bear

Another new item for me! Buster Bear is an original pattern by me, and is stocking today at Mainstreet congo. Buster is the first of what will be, many new bears. its a good way to use up scrap yarn! He has a rattle in his belly, so infants will like him. My son really likes him, and hes 4!lol.

save the date! May 1st is coming!

HAve you marked your calendar? May 1st is this coming Saturday, and its my grand opening! Ive started putting previews up already. i cant contain myself. i put up some new items, exclusive one of a kind items, and a few collabs. i have a few more items to put up through out the week. Theres more collabs, some Auctions and drawings as well. So far everything is going smoothly, except for the butterflies in my tummy! You would think, having been a wahm for over 2 yrs now, that i would be used to stockings and the hype. But this is my first adventure out on my own, with out the support of a congo. I know ill have friends there to support me, but its the fresh faces im nervous about! I try to be original and new, and i hope everyone gets to see that. I pray that this gets me the exposure ive been craving, and maybe some new opportunities!! Anyway, wish me luck!
