Saturday, January 10, 2009Meet Tyler Wentworth This is my first large lady doll. Not counting the widow and the cloth dolls I made myself. The is a Tonner doll, for those of you 'in the know'. I only learned of them when I joined a doll group on Ravelry and accidentally bought this one on ebay. But I'm glad I did. She's very pretty. I spend three days knitting and reknitting this skirt from KnitPicks Lace weight wool and am still not really happy with it. But she is clothed, anyway. She came in a teddy and stockings. I've put them away for safe keeping but I love her little shoes. Anyway... This is what I have been doing while Himself is on jury duty. Tomorrow I get back to painting. My frame stuff should be here this week sometime. Stay warm and find something fun to fiber! posted @ 04:14 PM PST [link] Friday, January 9, 2009Aretha Sorry it's been so long since I posted. I've been so busy doing nothing that I just forgot!  Oh well. Some weeks are like that. We were supposed to go get our new (to us) 5th wheel trailer this week but Randy got Jury Duty so it will probably be another week, at least. I am taking the dogs to town for 'maintenance' today and will attend the artist's get-together as well. But what i have been doing really, is playing. Found a knitted doll pattern on Ravelry and have been playing with her. This is Aretha in her heavy sweater. She's sporting gold hoop earrings now, too, but this photo was taken before she got them. I am still knitting doll clothes, but now for Tyler Wentworth, a lady doll I bought on eBay. Yes, I know... it's time to get back to work! I ordered some experimental frames for the art so when they come i will get busy. I want everything ready for the Big Show before we leave.Hope you're getting some playtime, too! posted @ 08:52 AM PST [link] |
