A doll for the little miss

I haven't had much to share lately as I have been busy making one of the AK Traditions dolls for little Miss Alice who turned 6 on Friday. It has been so much fun making her clothes!! Here she is....

I put her extra outfits in a cute suitcase that I bought at Hobbysew. Here are the gifts before they were wrapped for the birthday girl.

Stitching and knitting....

I did do some stitching and knitting on my long train trip though I also enjoyed a couple of books. I started this cross stitch while at Corrimal and finished it on the trip. Just need a Santa to do between the trees.

 This is a tiny stitchery for the front of a little bag designed by Natalie Bird. Nice and easy to stitch on the plane.

 This shawl is a fun easy knit as all the stitches are plain!

 Since coming home, I have tried to get into the sewing room and have managed to put together these little cushions. Only 3 more Santa ones to make!

 A few of us bought this lovely pattern from AK Traditions last year and here is my felt rabbit and his little friend in his backpack. There is a little girl one to make too.

Stitcher's angel gifts received and some show and tell

Just heard from Cheryl-Lee and she has received her stitcher's angel gifts from me. Here they are and I did add some Roses chocolates too. Hope they hadn't melted as they went to such a warm place. I am so glad Cheryl-Lee is enjoying them.

As always, we had a lovely time on Wednesday at stitching. Jan is finishing off this great quilt for her grandson, Josh.

I told you all about visiting AK Traditions in Melbourne recently and here is little Nathaniel holding the body of one of their lovely dolls. His grandma, Sue, knitted it for her daughter, Audrey.

Here she is. Sue is a lovely knitter but came this morning for a crochet lesson. I had forgotten how easy it is though not so easy to teach! Sue is doing really well and will be able to crochet the little flowers for the clothes soon.

Here are her gorgeous clothes. Makes me want to knit though it is a bit warm here at the moment for knitting.
