I haven't been posting much this week to the blog. I've been thinking about it, but have not had time. I've been working on a couple of things. All good.
So here's what's happening:
All fun and all good (I hope).
Phoebe&Egg are now on Facebook. Click the Facebook icon below to find their page.
Phoebe is off to New Jersey, hopefully ahead of tomorrow's predicted snowstorm.
There's not too much I can say about flower buttons, except I love them, and they are hard to come by. At least nice ones are. Here is my entire collection, all from various sources in China (found through eBay over the years). The last shot is how I like to use flower buttons. What else can I say? They are the perfect final touch.
Have not heard from Peabeec. If I don't hear by Thursday, I will select a new winner.
The winner of the Knitted Babes kit is Peabeec. I have written under your comment how to contact me, so I can send this out. Congratulations and thanks everyone for participating.
I know, 2014 started over four weeks ago, and most people have already made and broken their resolutions. Although I've done some of that too, for the past four weeks I've been thinking about the direction of this blog. I have been thinking about what I want to write about and what you want to see and read. And after a fun blogging class over at Skillshare and the surveys filled out by some of you, I have a few ideas. And by the way, the surveys have been very helpful. Thank you, I really enjoyed reading your responses.
And what I want and I think you want is for this blog to bring people together. Not just anybody, but people who are interested in handmade dolls. There is a whole community out there who is interested in handmade dolls. And this interest translates into wanting to read about the craft of making dolls and doll clothes, tutorials on sewing dolls and doll clothing, interviews with other doll makers and a bit about more about Phoebe and Egg.
I'm not one for planning too far in advance, life has shown me that it's best to see where it takes you. So here is what to look forward to on Phoebe&Egg in the near future:
So thank you and I look forward to coming together this year. I always love to hear from you.
Phoebe is off to join her baby sister Egg in Indiana. She wishes they could have travelled together, but that just didn't happen.
Egg is off to her new home in Indiana. Her older sister Phoebe is not far behind.
Two new pink-haired dolls. In my studio and on Etsy.
The dolls in the "Knitted Babes" book are so easy and fun to make, you will soon be addicted, which is fine, because there are enough materials in this kit to make at least four.
The book "Knitted Babes--Five Dolls and Their Wardrobes" by Claire Garland (see my interview in the earlier post), amazing photos and easy instructions
