Tiny heads




Today I started to crochet a little slouchy beret for Anaya my minifee. If it comes out good I may make some for my store, Las Mininas. Will post finished beret in a day.

Sunday blues....grays, and browns



Today I finished the rest of my bags for the Astoria Market. I also took inventory of my stock from the store and I think I'm pretty ready. So with some time left over on my Sunday I finished my coat for my lovely new dolly Anaya Rowan, the minifee. I was lucky to find some little Japanese iron-on patches to complete the coat and I received the split zipper two weeks ago so it's a real zip-up hoodie. Now she needs some leggings and a skirt, have to make a pattern though. I would write more about this weekend except that I am having a bit of a blue Sunday and I can't get myself to write much. Take a look at the finished projects.

She's here!!!!!! My Minifee!




Holy Moly!!!! Happy Thanksgiving day to me! I got my Fairyland Minifee, Miyu, in the post today! I'm ecstatic! She is the most beautiful doll I have ever seen in person. She's ethereal and she's without a shred of clothing. I don't have anything for this little lady to wear I had been waiting for her zipper for her coat to come then I had to start working on stuff for the Market. Gotta get crackin as amazing as her body is she probably wants some clothing. She also needs a name I'm toying with Anaya, which is a Swedish name, haven't decided. Welcome home Miyu Minifee!

Toasty totes




Yesterday after giving my apartment a thorough scrub down I set myself to sewing some wool tote bags for the Astoria Market. I was inspired by these beautiful geometric bags from my Japanese craft Unami books. I employed sashiko embroidery again to embellish the front of the bag plus I added a pocket to the inside for the essentials in life like a phone, lipgloss, or crochet hook.
