Blythe's Jewelry, flowers and a bunny!

I have made three more necklaces for Blythe.  They have a key chain closure.

Here is the daisy version
Here is the Blue Woodland flower version:
and lastly a Bunny necklace:
Thanks for looking! 


Blythe's Woodland Gnome collection

I've had this sweet Gnome print for a while.  I made some clothing for my grandson's when they were small (they are now 7) and i saved the leftovers..and i decided to use it for this collection for Blythe.

Here is the dress i designed, she has a hand sewn sequin flower with a ribbon flower for an accent:
Here is a close up:
Next my daughter thought a cape would be nice so i used this super soft fur trim and added ric-rac and some small pompoms along the bottom and then i made the tie closure. This cape is lined. This also shows the hat before i finished the edge.
One more thing for this collection is the Gnome hat.  Again, i made this one up and i rather like it..but then that's my taste i guess, it is wool and lined.

Blythe is Quite Foxy collection

Whenever i spend time with my daughter in CO, i get encouraged to create clothes for Blythe.   She visited Japan just before Christmas and intentionally purchased a Blythe doll for my Christmas present.  I haven't photographed this Blythe yet, but i promise to!

While i was visiting i decided to create a Fox sweater and from that came the pleated skirt and then the crocheted hat.

I made up the pattern for the sweater and hand embroidered the fox face on the front.  The pleated skirt is from a Simplicity Blythe pattern that has been retired.
So the next thing i made was a matching Fox crocheted hat that I made up, the fox has a ribbon nose that blends in with this Blythe's hair.  I should have taken the photo with a different Blythe.





























Just for fun i also made a Fox necklace:

Simply I Love You Blythe collection

For this month, i decided to produce this outfit for Blythe.  The pattern is a take-off of one of the dresses i made for my granddaughter that is 4.  This design was a bit shorter than the pattern for my granddaughter so i added the tulle to give it a longer look.

I have hand sewn seed beads and sequins on this dress. 
I have also created a headband to match with this dress..you can see the beading better in this photo.
