Today we will find out who will be Brielle's mom. And I thought it would be a great idea to make a dollsize journal for Brielle (5x5 cm). With photo's, her birth weight, the fabrics I used and the things she loves.
Enjoy your day

Here she is. Brielle my first (little weighted) baby. She has a little round stone in her head and a bigger stone in her belly. So all natural. She is not very heavy. Just a little heavier than my normal dolls. She is also about 18" tall.
She has a brown mohair wig and brown eyes.

She will be available in an auction on monday the 1st from 6:00 pm EST until Tuesday the 2nd 9:00 pm EST. http://hyenacart.com/Poppenliefde/mt/4865/39488/Brielle-OOAK-18-baby-cloth-doll-

She has a little bum (my first) and a bellybutton. A suitcase filled with all kind of goodies. Like a wooden brush, a drool bib, a sleepingbag etc. And she has a mini Little Star to snuggle with.

Enjoy your day

First I want to thank everyone for wanting to give Sol a loving home.
She found a wonderful home and she will have a Poppenliefde sister. So you can imagine Sol is very excited!

The last few days I have worked on some pajamas and a friend for Bridie.
I knitted a friend for Bridie called Zaza the greyhound. Zaza's pattern is from the book "Knit and purl pets" from Claire Garland. And there are some other lovely animals in that book to knit.

But here they are Bridie in her pj's with her friend Zaza the greyhound.
 
Enjoy your day!

I also added one pair of socks and a handknitted scarf! Bridie insisted. She is afraid it will be cold during her trip and in her new country.

I see it's already more than a month ago that I wrote to you all. I wish I could work more on my girls. I'm excited. I have idea's, new fabrics, a sewingmachine that is working better than before. Well..... I have to take it as it is........for now.

I want to show you two girls and a (not ready yet) baby. 


I wanted to make a baby for a very long time. And finally it's time. She is a little weighted and she will have a little bum. O and the clothes. I'm so excited to make them. Some diapers, a dress, knitted socks (or boots), a sleepingbag. And she will also wear a baby bodysuit. Well she will have lots of babystuff. All things you need to take care of your baby.

I want you to meet
Bridie
Bridie has brown eyes and brown wefted goat hair.
Bridie is about 18" tall.

Here she is wearing a longsleeve t-shirt, a legging with ruffles, a two layered dress with tule ruffles and ofcourse warm boots.

Fall and winter are wet and cold here in Holland. So boots are necessary!
But not only boots. Also a warm knitted hat and vest are very welcome.
Her handknitted vest and hat are made of Lana grossa Linea Pura ambiente.
And her crocheted boots are made of Lana grossa Linea Pura Organico print.
Her hat has a crocheted flower with little white beads.
Two bracelets for Bridie.

I want you to meet
Sol
Sol is a Butterfly doll with white wefted mohair hair and blue eyes.
Little Sol is about 13.4" tall.

I made her a crocheted and embroidered butterfly hat.
I'm so in love with this hat.
Do you see the grass and the flowers? And the flower button?
And here is Sol.
She is wearing a longsleeve t-shirt, a tule skirt, trousers with lace edging, a linen dress, crocheted boots and 
a little treasure bag.

Both Bridie and Sol will be available in an auction this week!
So stay tuned!

Enjoy your day!

Pfff it has been a busy two weeks. No dolls, but two weeks filled with personal stuff.

Happy and sad times.

First we had a beautiful and wonderful wedding in a castle in Belgium. We had a wonderful time with the family and friends of the bride and groom!

But we also had to say goodbye to my grandma, a wonderful warm loving woman. My aunts and uncles made it a beautiful and memorable goodbye.

I started where I left. The beginning of a new colour. A darker colour. She is not ready yet, so you have to wait a little bit longer to see her.
Enjoy your day

 I want you to meet
Lilou

Today is such a beautiful day. The sun is shining.....so this is the perfect time to experiment with making outdoor photo's of Lilou.
And I must say.....she loved it.
Look at her, sitting in the sun. Enjoying.


I made her a friendship bracelet. My gift to Lilou.


Lilou is the first girl I made with DollyMo mini mohair bouclé yarn. Just take a look at www.kamrinspoppen.nl. Here you can buy this yarn but also other dollmaking supplies and other goodies. I don't know why it took me so long, because I really like it and so does Lilou.


Enjoy your day!
