My last custom dolls of 2013

Can you believe that the year is now almost over?

It has been a busy one for sure.

These have been the last dolls I made before and for Christmas.

All 3 stayed local.  :)

For this sweetie I made clothes in more natural earthy colors .

The bamboo wool is still one of my favorite wool to work with.

I need to find more of it.

And here my last pocket baby for 2013.

Love the orange/purple fabric combinations .

 Here now also my last custom 12" cuddle doll for 2013.

 He's a little cutie for sure!

The give away winner doll is ready to go home

 This is the doll I made for the give away winner. 

She's such a cutie!

 Her hair can be styled in many ways.

Hope her new mama likes her too.

An upgrade !!

I'm so excited !

Last week I got my new (to me) Bernina930 .

Many of you will not get my excitement, but that's okay.  :)

This is her!!!!

 I started out on a cheap Singer sewing machine 

 Sewing mostly baby slings at that time.

Then I got my husband's grandma's Kenmore 10 that she had used for many years .

I liked that old machine and still do. 

It's a solid no nonsense machine and was able to sew through 3 layers of terrycloth!!

Lately I felt like she is getting a bit tired of this type of sewing and I'm sure she was not made to sew 

pretty much every day for the last 10 years. The tension was acting up too and that makes things

very frustrating for me.

So I put the word out for some ideas on what to get for a new machine and my friend

Barrie highly recommended the Bernina 930.

Guess what? I bought it off Ebay!

That was somewhat scary. n

No it WAS scary!!!!!!

I sold and bought for years on Ebay, but NEVER spend that kind of money ever!!!

Well I won the auction and the machine arrived extremely well packaged and in great working order!

I'm so happy ! 

Funny , just now do I feel worthy to get a really good sewing machine.....

tztztztz...*shakes head* 

Silly me!  

Now let's see what this baby can do.....

Have a wonderful day!

Pirate time....

I had a custom request for a pirate a few weeks ago and was really looking forward to make him.

I'm happy to introduce to you this little pirate .

 His eye patch can be removed and he can show you his pretty grey eyes.

The cutlass and belt are made from wool felt .

Gosh, I had so much fun making him. 

I need to make more pirates.....

I also made a pirate out fit for his sister doll.

Dress , eye patch and hat.
