They're creepy and crawly...spiders! Eeek! And they are on the new dresses I just made for Blythe. Get yours...before they're gone! Trap door to the store!

If you don't see the one you want in the shop, send me a note and I'll make one up just for you!

Halloween - It's Just Around the Corner!

It is coming! The creepy crawlies and ghouls and goblins! We are getting ready for the season with some new dresses for Halloween. We've got bats and cats and candy corn. Coming soon: Spiders!

Come on over and take a peek! Little Whimsies

Going to BlytheCon!!!

I just sent these dresses off to Linda for BlytheCon prizes. Can you believe it is just a month away? I have lots more sewing to do...guess I'd better get busy on that.
I will have a shop update later tonight; I just put up some photos on Flickr. It's going to be challenging to stock the shop AND put aside dresses for BlytheCon. My time is kind of limited just now. I've been working inside all morning, but the sun is shining and I have lots to do outside before I have to start driving kids around after school. So that's all for now!

A New Bunch!!

Look what I've been busy making! A new batch of dresses!!

I have to pick two to send to Blythecon for the raffle; a few may go in my poor, neglected shop and the rest will be packaged up to go with me to Blythecon. I've got another pile started; and I want to make some maxi dresses to take down as well.

My Etsy team, Blythe Handmade Collective, will have a table at Blythecon with an assortment of items from our members. Make sure to stop by and see us!

Just a quick update!

Summer is winding down and I find I have zero time to sew. I'm a bit stressed getting all the last minute stuff together to send both kids off to high school. Yes, my baby goes to high school this year. {cries} I tried last week to make some new maxi dresses - I've got some new fabrics just begging to become maxi dresses! - but I'm feeling rushed and distracted. So my dolls ended up with a new, less than perfect dress. And I have nothing new for the shop.

But my kids return to school on Tuesday and I am planning a major sewing marathon. No phone, no distractions...just me and the sewing machine, a pile of fabrics and some dolly models. Sounds like fun, doesn't it? So look for some new things by the end of the week!

Summer of Love

Isn't it funny how fashions come back in style? When I was a little girl, I wanted maxi dresses and a gypsy haircut. Anyone else remember those? One of the reasons I love Blythe so much, other than she is a doll of the same era, is that I can create outfits that I would have loved to wear way back then. My mom wasn't a very fashion forward person, and most definitely not a hippie, so I didn't get the maxi dresses or the gypsy haircut. But I can make them for my dolls!

This one is available in my Etsy shop and I plan to make several more dresses in this style with different fabrics. Check back soon!!

Shop is Open Again!!

After a longer than intended summer break, I'm happy to announce that my shop is open again! I've added a few new dresses; there are still some cute dresses on sale, too. I'll be adding new dresses as time allows.



I also need to get busy on my things for Blythecon. I'm very excited about the opportunity to be there and meet people I've only known through the internet. I will be sharing a table with other members of my Etsy team, Blythe Handmade Collective. And we'll have some Blythe goodies for sale! Yay! And a couple of my dresses will be given as prizes. So, I've got plenty to do between now and then!!
