I haven't been doing that much knitting, but I did do a little hand-sewing tonight.
The Youngest is growing like a little smiley, chubby weed, and she has grown out of a bunch of her clothes.
I was a little sad when she grew out of her latest sleeper, so I decided to convert it into a little dolly so we could hang on to it.
This little star baby is inspired by a pattern in Nature Babies.
I like to use baby socks for doll heads.
They come in great colors, and I always seem to have a big pile of single socks when I finish folding the laundry.
I started reading a new book this week too.
My parents gave me Animal, Vegetable, Miracle for my birthday.
It's a great read so far.
What's on your needles tonight?
I finished that book a few months ago, and loved it. In fact, I am still thinking about it on a regular basis. I would recommend it to everyone.
ReplyDeleteCute doll too.
What a sweet cuddle doll. What a lovely fabric for the body too!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that book! My favorite chapter is the one on canning.
ReplyDeleteI FINALLY joined the yarn along! I've been reading these posts for over a year, I think. I love the yarn along posts on your blog and it's high time I got involved. I am getting started on a project tonight.
ReplyDeleteAnimal Vegetable Miracle is one of my all-time favorites.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for the dolly--it always kills me when they move to the next size of clothes. Those baby socks are the hardest things to keep track of aren't they!
