Christmas Wreath

Image
My mother wanted a handmade gift to bring to a friend in the UK. This wreath is from 'Twas the Knits Before Christmas' by Fiona Goble. It was a fun knit, and great for using up oddments.

Faces and Hair

It's a Coraline and Wybie update. Now I just have to make Coraline's coat and put some Velcro on Wybie's coat.

Posting Fail!

I thought I'd done a few posts over the last week, but obviously not. Whoops! I had someone contact me through Facebook about making a Coraline doll. Obviously I said yes !!!! I've used my large rag doll pattern for the basic body and just changed the legs so that it would be easier to dress the doll as it was requested that she have removable clothes. This is a picture of Coraline with her not-quite-finished star sweater. And here is Coraline again with her best friend Wybie. I just need to find the right black buttons for the eyes so that I can do their faces, and then their hair. And lastly, Coraline's yellow rain coat. Busy, busy, busy!
