Sew!

Prima Dolly Melon poses with my work in progress: another green dress to celebrate spring and St. Patrick’s Day. I love making these little sleeveless dresses. They come together quickly so I get a sense of accomplishment more often.

Road Trip

It’s time to leave your cares behind. Grab your best friend…we’re going on a ROAD TRIP!

Sarah Shades and Bow Wow Trad are heading out…don’t know when they’ll be back…

Best Friends

 Friendship Goals: Take a selfie every time we get together.

These BFF’s are Sarah Shades and Bow Wow Trad, posing for the theme “Best friends” in the group Blythe Pure and Simple on Facebook.

Be Prepared

Who knows what could happen today? You might as well be prepared.

This is Playful Raindrops. Yes, she can ride her bike in a dress.

Welcome!

“Welcome to the present moment. Here. Now. The only moment there ever is.”  —Eckhart Tolle  

Three girls arrived today: Cherry Beach Sunset, Mondrian, and Hollywood! They are rejoining their friend Good Neighbor Cafe who has been here for about a year. Thanks to my friend Susan for letting them all come to live here with me!

Spring Green

Happy March! This month makes me think of green because of St. Patrick’s Day and the first day of spring, so I decided that another Pantone-inspired post was in order. I just finished sewing this very green dress and noticed that it was perfect on Cream Cheese and Jam. I love it when a theme comes together!

The bodice of the dress is made from the background fabric in the picture. I wanted to jazz it up, so I embroidered flowers on most of the little circles, and added leaves and French knots to finish the look.

 

I Don’t Mind

Be who you are and say how you feel, because those who mind don’t matter, and those who matter don’t mind.  —Dr. Seuss 

This Blythe doll is Prima Dolly Amaryllis, looking great in a fabulous new-to-us pantsuit by Rosiee Gelutie. I love the colors and fabrics. And what about this cute red chair? I came across it online at Michael’s. It’s called a “Tabletop Chair Accent”. I call it the perfect prop for doll pictures!
