Last minute Patchwork Christening Gift

To be honest I didn't think, that I would get this project finished in time. I did and I'm quite satisfied with that. In fact I haven't done anything, since I finished the stitching last weekend. Four hours ago I started to pick up the fabrics, I wanted to use. The back is made of Swell by Moda.

A mix of hens, dots, Matryoshkas and vintage embroidery. Some old and some new. Red, white, pink and blue. I'm finished and ready for the gift wrapping part. I'm ready - no, we are ready - for the Christening tomorrow. These beauties are part of the gift. Have a nice weekend.

Happy Tuesday

I got note books too! Thanks for telling me, Dorte. You are such a dear friend. The babuska you gave me is smiling here next to me - happy to have new friends! Happy Tuesday to you too!

Artista Dolls

I have made a new doll collection named after my new best friend. The friendship is very new and the Artista Dolls is our first project. We work great together, so I hope new projects will come up soon. I feel that I'm letting down a very dear friend. My old Husquarna is 22 years old and I bought the machine after giving birth to my first child in 1986!

Let me introduce you to the Artista Dolls - eight dolls in different colours and different decoration. I like their slanting shape. I had planned to make all dolls in the light blue and white fabric, but I had to try other colours too. Most of the dolls have linen on the back and a couple of them have light purple velvet.

One of the dolls is in my favorite colour mix of light blue and red. I think these two colours will be a theme for more Artista Dolls. If you are interested in buying the dolls they will be listed on Etsy soon. Until then feel free to send me an e-mail if you are interested in one of the dolls. You can see a picture of each doll here.

New Dolls

 

These dolls was ment to be a garland - but not this time! Yes, the babushka theme once again - I can't help it.

Not much more to say about that. Have a great Monday, friends.

Doll Factory

Happy monday evening - I made a small production of these happy dolls. They are ready for filling and four of them are looking forward to live as garland in a girl room.

One is going to Finland to live with a finnish girl. Perhaps they will visit these dolls.
