Here are some photos of my latest doll, Cricket! She is wearing a dress that I sewed using some beautiful fabric purchased from the lovely Amy at
Pinked Fabrics on Etsy. I just adore the Little Red Riding Hood theme! The shoes were, once again, a challenge for me - more of a mental block than anything else. Once I made up my mind to do it they went OK and I like the two-toned look of the wool felts. I still hope to be able to crochet some booties in the future if I can figure out a pattern that looks good and doesn't take me FOREVER! Practice will improve my crochet and knitting skills, right? Anyway, here's Cricket!!
She got a little bored last night while I was trying to figure out my approach for her shoes, so she found a basket of hair ties and made a bit of a mess!
And, finally - the shoes are finished. It's a bit late and the lighting is not at it's best, so she will have to wait until tomorrow for a photo shoot with the shoes. Hopefully I will be able to post her on Etsy within a day or two!
